No. It does not count questions with no answers. Look at the accept rate of this OP's question. It's accept rate is 40%. Now hover to his accept rate it shows the following tool tip:
this user has accepted an answer for 4 of 10 eligible questions.
Now look at his questions tab. There are 13 questions. Where three questions have no answers. So accept rate is counted without questions with no answers.
