Re,
After so many guesses on this list how many people use RSS
I wanted to see some numbers. I checked out the first link
of a Google search for "rss statistics." Here are
a few
numbers from that site/blog (all with sources):

April 18, 2006
RSS is currently used or is planned to be used within the
next 12 months by 63% of consumer product marketers, 65%
media and communications marketers, 37% retail marketers,
37% financial services marketers and 38% equipment and tech
marketers.
March 16, 2006
According to TechNewsWorld 34.4% of the Chineese internet
population already uses RSS. Of course, the study,
conducted by polling 2,689 people is hardly conclussive,
but at least the indications are here.
September 27, 2005
In an announcement of their Consumer Forum 2005 event,
Forrester Research reports that RSS is now being used by 6%
of consumers, compared with 2% in 2004.
Also, when Yahoo(Answers) CNN, Google (News) has RSS, I
would not call it a tool for geeky sites only. 
Bye,
Gabor
