Decent for a late-night anime: around 2.5% of the audience for the past three weeks. In the same range as xxxHolic, Golgo13 and ToLoveRu; above Soul Eater and Code Geass; below Shugo Chara, Toshokan Sensou and Net Ghost PiPoPa, which are on earlier or during the day. Macross has jumped up to this level since it began, and xxxHolic was lower this past week than it was before. There are often accidental reasons for a show to dip, such as a special on opposite it.

We had better get used to the fact that in Japan, as elsewhere, anime are for kids, and kids' show have a far higher viewership than the shows we tend to discuss around here.

You can always get TV ratings from Siegel Clyne's posts in the Anime Viewer Ratings in Japan? thread in the General Anime forum. There is detailed and interesting discussion there, too.

You can also see results tabulated in Japanese on this site (although it doesn't happen to have results for Macross).

Macross ratings have been 1.1 - 2.7 - 2.3 - 2.6.

The detailed demographic ratings for Macross posted by Realist_Classic were interesting. Compare with similar ratings for other shows and another week, posted by Siegel Clyne:
