I think there has been no attempt to estimate these numbers in a
scientific way, yet. The German iX magazing asks its readers once a
year what they use in their job and at home (hardware, operating
systems, software, ...); this year, they first explicitly asked
whether readers use Python. They have not yet published the results.
One good estimate is the number of articles posted to
comp.lang.python; I believe there is a number of places to get
statistics about that.
