It looks from this like several million will be the correct figure.
I heard that only about 3 million bitcoin addresses are used. I would say that the number of addresses > number of users.
Myself, I have used dozens of addresses, and don't consider to be a heavy user of addresses.

Total 11,462,007
10mils really don't matter so ......
The addresses above 0.001 threshold could almost directly be mapped to holders 1:1. But I know that holders use several addresses so that has to be accounted for.
What are the 10 million dust addresses anyway? Nobody buys with $0.10
