You can't specify the precision but it's possible to set the thousand 
separator
(no idea for the rule what can be used as separator).

\starttext
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](1)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](10)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](100)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](1000)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](10000)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](100000)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](1000000)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](10000000)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](100000000)}
\stoptext
