    Look to the professional society for sysadmins SAGE.
    www.unenix.org/sage
    Consider paying for the annual surveys going back several years. One
    of the questions asked is how many servers per admin. The real answer
    can range from several admins on the same box for one that could be
    listed on the Top 500 Supercomputers web site through a thousand
    identical workstations all doing the same thing. The surveys take all
    of those answers and average them out. If your site isn't average
    (who's is?) this answer could help or hurt, so look it up first then
    decide if you want to use it.
