Say I had a website that was one page, index.php, widely variable in content by url. Say I had 13,000 generic "hits" since the beginning of October. How many would probably be cyberbots?

You don't speculate. You check the user-agents in the web server logs.

..would be a VERY obvious place to start for anyone who has a web server and in even vaguely interested in traffic management, and these topics are easily found with a brief Google search. There is NO foolproof way to determine this, since real users can mask their user agents, and bots can easily spoof them. Back to a basic Google search, which would lead you to the Google Analytics page, which can help to break these things down. You're asking for a percentage, and there's no way anyone can answer that.
