    Something like

    We currently host <?php
    $stats = get_sitestats();
    $tmp_blog_count = number_format ($stats[ 'blogs' ] );
    print "".$tmp_blog_count." blogs";
    ;?>

    If you only want the blog count, and not other site stats, you can just use this:

    <?php
    $sites = get_blog_count();
    ?>

    This function is called by get_sitestats(), along with some others. It stores (caches) the value as a site option and recalculates it if the current stored value is older than one hour.
