Rate usually refers to "events per unit of time or exposure", so we can 
either count events in intervals or record time-stamps as our dependent 
variable. If the stochastic counting process is memoryless we have a 
Poisson process.

Poisson regression can often be used to model this type of data.

Rate in the sense of proportion between 0 and 1 is not really a rate. 
But sure, there are many ways to model such data, including assuming a 
beta distribution for the proportion.
