Best Answer

Federal officials stopped giving official estimates, but, according to the NY Times, there were between 1.5 and 2 million people physically present at the Mall in Washington.

In addition:
  • An estimated 37.8 million people viewed the Inauguration from their TV sets, while the internet fared even better.
  • CNN.com reported 21.3 million live video streams,
  • MSNBC.com reported 14 million video streams
  • Keynote Systems Inc. (tracks website performance) reported that the internet's top 40 sites slowed down by 60% -when the ceremony started at 11 a.m.
