I have at least two Google accounts and a very old never-really-used Youtube account (from the days before it was a Google account), so it's very appropriate that you say "profile count" rather than "user count".

I'm quite aware of that, but yes, that's a crucial distinction.

Point being that very large user account collections do exist.

Only active users should be counted.

An upstream comment menttioned total accounts.

I've some awareness of G+ active users.
