The quadratic case can be dealt with as follows. A quadratic polynomial $f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ has two distinct real roots if and only if $\Delta(f) = b^2 - 4ac > 0$, and a pair of complex conjugate roots if and only if $\Delta(f) < 0$.
We now let $a,b,c$ vary in the box $[-X,X]^3$. We first pick a pair $(a,c) \in \mathbb{Z}^2 \cap [-X,X]^2$. If $ac < 0$, that is, if the pair $(a,c)$ lies in two of four quadrants, then $\Delta(f) < 0$; hence 100% of quadratic polynomials with $a,c$ coming from those two quadrants have two real roots. The remaining two quadrants are symmetric to each other, so we might as well consider only the positive quadrant. We can exploit symmetry once more to assume that $a \leq c$, and from density considerations we can carve out the 0-density sets corresponding to $a = 0$ and $a =c$; whence we assume $0 < a < c$.
The count of triples $(a,b,c)$ satisfying $0 < a < c \leq X$ and $\Delta(f) < 0$ can be estimated by the triple integral
$$\displaystyle \int_1^X \int_1^c \int_{-2\sqrt{ac}}^{2 \sqrt{ac}} db da dc = \frac{8}{9} X^3 + O(X^2).$$
Multiplying by 4 to account for the assumption that $a \leq c$ and $a,c > 0$ (and using standard geometry of numbers arguments), we see that the total number of negative discriminant quadratic polynomials of height at most $X$ is
$$\displaystyle N^+(X) = \frac{32}{9} X^3 + O(X^2).$$
The number of positive discriminant forms is then
$$\displaystyle N^{-}(X) = 8X^3 - \frac{32}{9} X^3 + O(X^2) = \frac{40}{9} X^3 + O(X^2).$$
One can do a similar (but much more difficult) argument for cubic polynomials (binary forms), by exploiting the fact that for a cubic binary form $g(x,y) \in \mathbb{Z}[x,y]$, its Hessian covariant $q_g(x,y)$ (which is a quadratic form) has discriminant $-3\Delta(g)$; and hence the problem of counting cubic binary forms with three or one real linear factors is reduced to dealing with the Hessians. However, the inequalities involved are no longer linear in general, and hence the application of geometry of numbers methods will be more complicated. Cremona also worked out the exact conditions for quartic polynomials to have 0, 2, or 4 real roots in https://homepages.warwick.ac.uk/~masgaj/papers/r34jcm.pdf
I suspect the methods I used above become intractable very quickly with respect to the degree, so perhaps a different formulation is necessary to make progress.
Addendum: I should add that the answer to the question is known for degrees 3 and 4 if instead one counts $\operatorname{GL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$-classes of binary forms (of degrees 3 and 4 respectively) with respect to an appropriate $\operatorname{GL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$-invariant height. In particular, when $d = 3$ and we put the height as the discriminant, we have
\begin{align*} N_3(X)& = \# \{F = a_3 x^3 + a_2 x^2 y + a_1 xy^2 + a_0 y^3 \in \mathbb{Z}[x,y]: |\Delta(F)| \leq X\} \\ & = \frac{\pi^2}{18} X + O(X^{3/4}), \end{align*} and $N_3^{\pm}(X)$ (which counts the number of forms of bounded positive/negative discriminant, respectively) is given by
$$\displaystyle N_3^+(X) = \frac{\pi^2}{72} X + O(X^{3/4}), N_3^-(X) = \frac{\pi^2}{24} X + O(X^{3/4}).$$
For the degree 4 case, if we put the height as $H(F) = \max\{|I(F)|^3, J(F)^2/4\}$, as in Bhargava-Shankar (http://annals.math.princeton.edu/2015/181-1/p03), and put $N_4^{(0)}(X), N_4^{(1)}(X), N_4^{(2)}(X)$ for the number of $\operatorname{GL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$-classes of integral quartic forms of height at most $X$ with 0 pairs of complex conjugate linear factors, 1 pair of complex conjugate linear factors, and 2 pairs of complex conjugate linear factors respectively. They showed that
$$\displaystyle N_4^{(0)}(X) = \frac{4 \zeta(2)}{135} X^{5/6} + O_\varepsilon(X^{3/4 + \varepsilon}),$$ $$\displaystyle N_4^{(1)}(X) = \frac{32 \zeta(2)}{135} X^{5/6} + O_\varepsilon(X^{3/4 + \varepsilon}),$$ and $$\displaystyle N_4^{(2)}(X) = \frac{8 \zeta(2)}{135} X^{5/6} + O_\varepsilon(X^{3/4 + \varepsilon}).$$
Sorting by a $\operatorname{GL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$-invariant height is likely a more natural question and possibly easier than the original question.
