So how much higher are the odds of alien life being crabs than resembling something close to humans?

No clue. I've just read the articles talking about how crabs have evolved separately I think three times. Nature keeps making crabs. But that is using earth environments. Perhaps very alien environments would have selection bias toward other forms.
