So from what I could find out, this is based on shipment numbers, not sell-through. And the shipment for the RX 9070(XT) was pretty small as it sold out very quickly while NVidia had several new GPUs to ship out in the same timeframe. What I don't know for sure however is if server GPUs are included in this calculation or not, but I don't think they do, as then the gap should be even wider.

Now that AMD has ramped up production with a higher wafer allocation for their GPUs and launched the 9060XT while NVidia had less cards to launch, this should narrow down a bit again, especially since it looks increasingly like several NVidia cards are sitting on shelves right now (especially the 5070 and 8GB 5060Ti, hence why those dropped below MSRP already in Europe), so less shipments of existing cards inbound. And hopefully AMD will also ship more cards to the US, $1000+ plus taxes for a 9070XT in some stores is simply wild.

Well remember that we had plenty of reports that suggested Radeon was stock piling cards with to the delay. So idk if the shipment numbers will actually increase significantly or not. If anything, the bump in % before Q1 for Radeon might have been them shipping all those cards to retailers. Hard to say though but regardless, we will see in the coming months how it all shapes up.  

AMD was stockpiling, but only after the rush and seeing that it didn't help much and sold out quickly anyway did they actually increase the wafer allocation for their GPUs. Also, since the original plan was to release them in January, many were already shipped in the previous quarter.

While I don't think it will break the 20% mark anytime soon, but it will get slowly better since their cards are better received this gen by the general public than before.
