Google = probably doesn't care that much about KW density. get em in your page title, page headers, and a few times on the pages.
Yahoo! = cares a decent bit more than google, but it is probably some dynamic level. no specific guaranteed setpoint. for example, shorter pages are likely to naturally have a high kw density. my tip here is to just check the search results for whatever term you want to rank for. whoever is near the top with the least comprehensive linkage profile probably most closely matches the on the page criteria best.
Teoma is the only other major search engine right now and again I would suggest reviewing page content to see what they want, but they are mostly focused on local link communities to drive their algorithm
google does not count the meta keywords tag and yahoo uses it for inclusion within a subset of results, but not to effect relevancy in any way
