From January 2011 to October 2015 Rubio has missed 176 out of 1437 roll call votes. Which comes out to about 12.2%.
When Obama was a senator from January 2005 to October 2008 he missed 314 out of 1,300 votes. Or 24.2%.
Rubio still has a ways to go to catch up to Ol' Barry.

Well it seems pretty clear that Rubio will catch him. You are comparing Rubio's numbers from a full year before the election to Obama's numbers including the actual year of the election.
