Not to put too fine a point on it... not many.
Sure, you'll find some pretty rough Kickstarted RPGs these days for download, but in the last five to ten years the AAA PnP RPGs out there have finally started to understand that not only do the rules need to be solid, but you need to present them clearly and attractively. There are some games far inferior to GURPS that have a huge and growing following, in part, because of increased production values.
I'm not saying GURPS needs to have the production value of a Serenity RPG or D&D5, but it really does need a redesign (not of the rules, of everything else...except the indexes... the indexes are spot on) to recapture people's imagination.
Play shouldn't be bogged down by poorly organized rules books, y'know?
