How does the accident history of a popular Homebuilt such as the RV-10 compare with a similar four seat FAA Type Certificated airplane such as the Cirrus SR 22?



I want to know if any modern Kitplane has a close or better safety record than a similar sized Type Certificated airplane.
I think since most homebuilts are either one or two seat, the percentage of Homebuilt accidents is logically greater for that reason. There are less ( by percentage) one seat and two seat Certificated airplanes.
