I'm gapping out, and for some reason, the idea of re-doing my error pages 
for my site seems to be fun right now. So I'm customising my 404 pages, as 
well as my 500. Can someone tell me what the most frequently encountered 
errors might be 
---------------------------

Look in your server logs/error logs to see which ones your site gets, and which ones are the most common for your site.

See this excellent website:
404 research labs 
http://www.plinko.net/404/ 

Finally, the full list of response codes:

Success codes:	
200 = OK
201 = Created
202 = Accepted
203 = Partial Information
204 = No Response
206 = Partial Content	
300 = Redirected
301 = Moved Permanently
302 = Found Elsewhere
303 = New Method
304 = Not Modified

Failed codes:	
400 = Bad Request
401 = Unauthorized
402 = Payment Required
403 = Forbidden	
404 = Not Found	
405 = Method not allowed
408 = Request timeout
500 = Internal Error
501 = Not Implemented
502 = Overloaded
503 = Gateway Timeout
