Well at the currnet market price you need to raid for more then 100 UU for 15 AT, now i manage in the first 10 mins of the update to raid for 500k UU, i was getting 5k for 15AT. Today only 5 days after the update i'am getting 200UU for 15AT. But i did find someone who untrained all his miners so that he wouldn't have too much income and i hit him for 75k.
So the raid is great and works fine as is. You guys just need to wait till the farms have about 10k to 30k to start raiding them.

Agreed, raid will become more used as time goes by and all those farms with high UP gather sufficient thousands of UU to be worth raiding. Also, 2% seems to be what the raid gets with war declaration, full 15 turns and no defence.
Patience too can be a weapon, when used correctly. In this case it can be used to get you thousands of UU simply by waiting. I feel that the raid exactly as is will be useful and not over-powered.
And to all those wanting a 35 or 50% type of raid, that means you'd NEVER need more than 6 attacks to get 90% of their total UU, even if they had millions of UU. The flip side is that if you untrain your troops you don't need to worry about someone stealing all of your UU before you have time to use them.
In short, Raid will be useful, just give it time, and boosting the raid percentage will cause more problems for people.
