I don't have any stats for Cornell, but I do have some info about other schools.
For Harvard, I have heard that they admit about 50-60% of those that they interview.
For Stanford, an adcom actually said that they hope interview 800 students and admit 400-500 this year (for 370 spaces).
I believe that Wharton also admits about 50% of those that they interview.
These numbers are off the top of my head, but I believe they are more or less accurate. Getting an interview definitely doesn't mean you are a sure thing, but I think it moves you from 10-20% chance to 50%+ chance.
Of course, some schools interview everyone that applies so their admit rate for interviewed candidates should be the same as their overall rate, and at quite a few schools less than 1% of students are admitted without an interview.

Hate to respond to myself, but as I was reading Montauk's MBA guide I came across interview statistics for Cornell (by chance).
According to Ann Richards of Johnson (Cornell) "No one is admitted without an interview. We interview about 25 percent of our applicants (on an invitation-only basis), and admit about half of those we interview." p.339
I'm not sure exactly how current that quote is, but I think it's a few years old.
