If you look up "Estimated Forcible Rape Rape" (per 1000) on the DOJ's uniform crime reporting tool

http://ucrdatatool.gov

you will see that from 1980-2010 here is the rate per 100,000 persons:

1980 36.8
1981 36.0
1982 34.0
1983 33.8
1984 35.7
1985 36.8
1986 38.1
1987 37.6
1988 37.8
1989 38.3
1990 41.1
1991 42.3
1992 42.8
1993 41.1
1994 39.3
1995 37.1
1996 36.3
1997 35.9
1998 34.5
1999 32.8
2000 32.0
2001 31.8
2002 33.1
2003 32.3
2004 32.4
2005 31.8
2006 31.0
2007 30.0
2008 29.7
2009 29.1
2010 27.5


I'm trying to get openoffice to graph it out for me, but it's becoming more trouble than it's worth. I refuse to pay for the full version of excel. As you can see, the rate per 1000 in 1980 was 36.8, it peaked in 1992 at 42.8 and the 2010 rate was 27.5
