It depends. What version and operating system are you using?

If you use Classic server, just look at the number of processes started.
On Linux, simple "pstree" command will count them for you.

If you use Superserver, you can only query services to see users
connected to some database. You have to repeat that for each database
available, to get all connections. To get that info, you can use
services API, or some of the tools that give that information, like for
example my FBExport tool (look at signature for URL).
