I don't think there is such a biome as "Frozen Ocean." The wiki doesn't say anything about it and I haven't really encountered it.
From personal experience, I'd say Mushroom Island is the rarest. I haven't even seen one of those in my Survival worlds. I think either Hell or Sky is the most common. There's a whole dimension only for those biomes but since they're not in the choices, I take it that you're only referring to the overworld biomes. In that case, I think Forest is the most common.
Most common biome is plains, most rare is mushroom island. I've almost always spawned in plains, but never once have I seen a mushroom biome in the years I've played Minecraft...
I think the most common biome is Extreme Hills. I always spawn in Extreme Hills and can't get out. Here are Extreme Hills. There are Extreme Hills. All are Extreme Hills.
For me the rarest is Mesa. I've seen a few Mushroom Biomes, jungles and ice spikes biomes, but no mesas. On the other hand the most common is between forests, savannahs, and deserts. I voted forest because I always seem to spawn in them when I'm exploring seeds. But on my actual world and I just go really far in one direction it goes: desert, savannah, desert, savannah a million times...

The Wiki does have a page (if you can call it that) and the biome ID is 10. However, a bug(?) in 1.7 prevents them from generating, but they are still very much present in the code:
public static final BiomeGenBase frozenOcean = (new BiomeGenOcean(10)).setColor(9474208).setBiomeName("FrozenOcean").setEnableSnow().func_150570_a(field_150595_c).setTemperatureRainfall(0.0F, 0.5F);
Here is a screenshot of AMIDST showing a frozen ocean biome (the small gray area between the southwesternmost tip of the ice plains and desert):

I'd say it is the rarest in 1.6.4 and earlier; mushroom islands are pretty rare but I saw a lot more of them, in number and area, when there was nothing but ocean, which is obviously the most common biome in 1.6.4, and it is still pretty common in 1.7 (comparison); for land only, it appears that forests in general are the most common.

Well that explains why I haven't seen Frozen Oceans anymore which lead me to thinking that Frozen Oceans doesn't even exist. That means that Frozen Ocean is the rarest biome ever. Though, Mushroom Islands are still the rarest "legit" biome (I think).
If not Mushroom Island then it's Jungle Edge M, Birch Forest Hills M or Mesa Plateau F. The only reason why I think Mushroom Island is the rarest because I've seen all other biomes including technical biomes but never have even seen a Mushroom Biome.
I've only seen Mesa, Ice Spikes, and Savanna once in my dozen or so worlds. I've never seen a Mushroom Island (but I rarely venture far by boat). I don't think Jungle is all that uncommon since all but two worlds I've played in I've found jungle within my large map area.

I saw frozenoceans in a Faction server but SinglePlayer Seeds are the same as Multiplayer seeds but I was far away from 0, 0 (the spawn was set at -3000 Z and X) so this might prevent from. Biomes being near 0, 0

It probably has to spawn far away from the center of the map

Someone's probably said this, but frozen oceans aren't actually a biome, but generate when an ocean and a cold biome (snow taiga, ice plains, etc) overlap, if that makes sense. The ocean isn't special, but the cold biome freezes it.

Well, it's still a biome but like a technical biome (or whatever you call it). The only reason why I said there's no biome called Frozen Ocean because I thought they don't exist anymore but it turns out, it's a bug that prevents them from generating.

Jungle M has the same bug as FrozenOcean.I thought that you guys were used to 1.6 but now you use 1.7 and don't call Ocean very common

Mesas maybe uncommon, I'm only find few of them
For most common is forest, plains, and savannah

You probably get trapped by Plateaus but a good way to get down of them is go on the edge and then go down until you are more near the flat land. I don't like Roofed Forests when it çomes to traveling

TheMasterCaver's First World - possibly the most caved-out world in Minecraft history - includes world download.
TheMasterCaver's World - my own version of Minecraft largely based on my views of how the game should have evolved since 1.6.4.
Why do I still play in 1.6.4?
