I've had monks, rangers etc. tank for my groups, even in our late 40s in lguk and early 50s, in lguk had a ranger tanking frenzy camp for 2-3 days straight wtih no wiping. In my lower levels on my rogue (about a month ago) I was seeing 1-2 rangers in 2/3 groups I got, and they were tanking fine. They are around but I see them far more frequently at lower levels, perhaps as alts that don't necessarily make the high end (and judging by the gear of many of them I would guess this is the situation.) I don't see as many warriors as knight classes potentially because knight classes hold aggro better pre 37, and yes while I do make comments about xp snare (see earlier in the thread) I will admit some of the best tanks I've had here are not warriors but hybrids (rangers even) or monks.
*edit* a good hybrid imo can compensate for the xp snare by being more effective with stuns, aggro, snares and/or dps than a straight warrior
