What's the probability to find a value of $t<T$ where $|P_k(it)|<\epsilon$?

Given $P_k$, the truncated Prime $\zeta$ function, defined like $$ P_k(it):=\sum_{n=1}^k p_n^{it}, $$ where $p_n$ is the $n$th prime. What's the probability to find a value or range of $t$ less than $T$, where $|P_k(it)|<\epsilon$?

EDIT By that I mean, among all values of $t<T$, how large is the portion of values, where $|P_k(it)|<\epsilon$?

To give an example, I plotted $P_{500}(it)$, where $0<t<400$:

The lower plot shows the portion of values that lies below a certain threshold. Almost all values lie below $.1$. I interpret the lower plot as the sum over the distribution.
