That seems pretty average. I have 22,683 hits but only 2,413 kudos all together on ao3, which is like 10% total. Some of my fics are definitely carrying more of their kudos weight than others. I feel like the percentage difference between hits and kudos is a really misleading way to look at your fics, because it's rarely ever going to be high percentage.
Instead I go in the tag of the pairing I'm writing for and look to see what similar fics written around the same time have in kudos. I don't do it often, but a few times that I've felt like my rare pair fics have bombed it's really helped.
Though, of course, some fics really do just bomb and that can suck.
