imagine your slim odds of being lost at sea. now compare the surface area of the sea to the amount of space there is out there.

Not too good. REMOTE parts of space aren't frequented too much by starships, because they're so... well, so remote. Even if you did get rescued, it might be by space smugglers. It would probably be a white guy who was a bit of a rogue, but essentially good-hearted. And maybe he'd have some sort of loyal alien co-pilot.

Depends on how you get there....chances are the starship LSD got you there. So I'm guessin if you wait long enough (some hours) you'll eventually come down off your trip. I mean get rescued by another starship.

Negligible. There are some fundamental physical problems (in addition to the speed of light issue) which appear to make starships totally impracticable.

Without any way of guiding the rescuers towards you, infinitesimally small.
Unless you happen to have a friend with an Improbability Drive spaceship, as in "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" . . .

Without a distress beacon/signal of some sort? Almost exactly zero.
