Considering:
1. There are greater than 5 vendors selling NetBSD on CDROM - so there
must be a market for it.
2. At least one company, Wasabi Systems, developing and porting NetBSD
to new processors.
3. A fair number of new faces in the NetBSD mailing lists.
4. Several large Internet Service Providers running NetBSD.
5. NetBSD on the spacestation.
I would say there are a lot of NetBSD users.
Also, consider that Netcraft can't tell the difference between NetBSD
and OpenBSD.
I know a lot of people who have Linux running on their i386 boxes and
NetBSD/OpenBSD on their other boxes.
