Roughly.
The BWV catalogue goes from 1 to 1127.
525-771 are organ works
772-994 are harpsichord works
1052-1065 are keyboard concertos
1090-1120 are Neumeister Chorale preludes for organ
1121-1126 are other organ works
Looks like about half. Maybe a little less than half.
Roughly, of course. That's by BWV number. Doesn't take into account
the lengths of pieces. Doesn't account for BWV works that might be
spurious or gaps in the BWV catalogue or transcriptions, or etc etc
etc.
