Australian TV station NineMSN has held a show called the "National IQ Test" and the results are available here.
The funniest graph is probably the one for hair colour ... prejudices anyone? :-)
It should be noted that the test was conducted in uncontrolled environments. For proper testing, attend one arranged by for example Mensa.

Update (2002-08-08): IQ tests on TV are dangerous, psychologists claim
Uncontrolled environments is right - I am sure that many people would have cheated, also. The TV show made the point quite strongly that a true IQ test should be administered by a psychologist, which was echoed by the token Mensa representative on the show.
