Edit there were 1095 missed bashes making 1396 bash attempts in total.
0.2% of bash attempts resulted in a stun. I haven't controlled for facing on these, just assumed they were all to the front.
From a bottomfeeding solo tank perspective FSI is not doing much.

That is a very small sample size, so it isn't a good indicator of stun chance.
I have 4000 recorded kills on my Shadowknight, levels 55-58. He is mostly killing mobs in the low 40s as well, which roughly matches with your LDC example.
Here is the data:
Troll SK 55-58
===============
4000 total kills
448 total stuns from bashes
6519 successful bashes
12040 missed bashes
2262 successful kicks
4678 missed kicks
This shows that 70% of bash/kick attempts are bashes. 25499 x 0.7 = 17849, and the total number of bash attempts were 18,559. The numbers are close enough to be pretty confident 70% is the average, and I got bashed slightly above the average.
For stun chance, that is (448/6519) x 100 = 6.87% chance to be stunned per successful bash. 6.87 x 0.7 (chance to bash over kick) = 4.8%, which is probably round-able to 5%.
So for a high 50s tank fighting mobs in the low 40s, your chance to be stunned is around 5% per bash/kick attempt.
However, this lower stun chance may be due to the level difference between yourself and the mob. The level difference is 10+ levels generally speaking in both of our cases.
For my lower level characters, my chance to be stunned is much higher. This is probably due to them mostly soloing mobs that are only plus or minus 2 levels.
Human Enchanter 13-30
=======================
578 total kills
452 total stuns from bashes
1313 successful bashes
830 missed bashes
567 successful kicks
356 missed kicks
Gnome Warrior 1-24
==================
1194 total kills
377 total stuns from bashes
1408 successful bashes
1812 missed bashes
578 successful kicks
733 missed kicks
Iksar Monk 10-40
=================
1547 total kills
1471 total stuns from bashes
4058 successful bashes
4529 missed bashes
1878 successful kicks
2116 missed kicks
Aggregate:
=======
3,319 total kills
2300 stuns from bashes
6,779 successful bashes
7,171 missed bashes
3,023 successful kicks
3,205 missed kicks
This also shows bashes land 70% of the time. 20,178 x 0.7 = 14,124.6, which is close to 13,950, the total number of bash attempts.
In this case, each bash has a (2300/6779) x 100 = 34% chance to stun per successful bash.
This means the total bash chance is 34 x 0.7 = 24% chance to be stunned per bash/kick attempt.
TLDR
When the mob is more than 10 levels below your character, you have a 5% chance to be stunned per bash/kick attempt.
When the mob is 0-3 levels lower or 1-2 levels higher than your character, you have a 24% chance to be stunned per bash/kick attempt.
The average of the two is around 15%, so that is probably the chance to be stunned roughly speaking when fighting a mob somewhere around 5-8 levels below yourself.
