Well, according to w3schools, IE7 has 20% of the market.  And, given that
w3schools tends to attract a geekier crowd, i'd say that number is low
(especially given their stats of Firefox at 35%)

Browser news tries to use multiple sources.
http://www.upsdell.com/BrowserNews/stat.htm

It shows IE7 anywhere from 19 to 33%, and IE6 anywhere from 33-58%.

Interestingly, it shows 2 radically different views for Gecko based
browsers.  Two Geeky sites (Engineering Workstations Server at
UI/Urbana-Champagne and Counts from the site itself show Mozilla in the 30%
range, but everywhere else, including completely "geek"-agnostic sites show
it in the low-teens.

In any event, at least 20% of users are using IE7, possibly as much as 33%.
