Clearwater Christian has "100%" (though I think they're all local groups), but that's of their (less than) 600 total enrolled students.
Yes, I believe what I remember hearing about Clearwater Christian was that they have a bunch of locals and everyone is required to be in one - thus the 100%.

W&L is #3.

I find the list to be a tad misleading, actually, because if it was fraternities they were counting and not Greek life as a whole, the number for W&L would be higher. Women's enrollment in sororities is around 75% usually and mens at 85% usually, so it balances out to 80%... but the list makes it seem as if it's only FRATERNITIES being discussed when in reality they are talking about both.

(And yeah, yeah, many sororities are technically fraternities, but this list is aimed at the general population who doesn't realize that.)
