I ran a couplecouple of queriesqueries and found the following

Site | Count of Post Reopened| Count of Closed Posts  |  Percentage of Closed 
     |                       |                        |  posts that are re-opend
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SO   |        2528           |         69498          |         3.64%
P.SE |        281            |         3049           |         9.21%

It would seem that since a higher percentage of closed posts got reopened on P.SE than SO I think the opposite is true. You have a better chance of getting a post reopened on a smaller site.

If you think Moderator vs Community opening is important here's the break down of the #Of voters per reopen. Using this querythis query

Reopens that involved some moderator intervention was about 75% on P.SE and 45% on SO. If you look at only moderator ones its 60% on p.SE vs 34% on SO.

This means that if your going to get your question reopened on P.SE its more likely to include moderation attention than on SO. I don't know if that's important or not.
