Yes it is 1.5x magnification.

Hand-held and uncropped.

Hmmm, well I ordered a coupler, when I put my 32mm prime on my 200mm travel lens that should give me about 1:6 if I read stuff right. www.cs.mtu.edu/~shene/DigiCam/… But I have also read that it is supposed to depend on your sensor size. What is true of that?

The sensor size doesn't directly affect a macro lenses magnification, it does however have what is referred to as a "crop factor".
A Canon APS-C or Nikon DX sensor has a crop factor compared to a Full Frame sensor and this gives the appearance of more magnification.
But it is not more magnification it is just a crop of what you get on a Full Frame camera. (Full Frame being the equivalent of 35mm film format).
