How many active players are there?

I was just wondering how many active players there are worldwide. Lets say an active player is everyone above bronze 3 (since this is the lowest point you can have after a reset). There should be a website or a document somewhere that can answer me that question, but I don't know any, so I'm asking.

I have a guess here how many there are, but this is just guessing around without any data whatsoever:

So there are currently about 700-800 positions in the tib league (my GDI sits at the bottom xd), so that's about 800 people (we are very generous). Now lets add 10% because maybe there are people who hit tib league only with 1 faction. This brings us to 880, lets be extremely generous again and round it up to 1000. Now I guess that each league below that has twice as many players (again: no data, just guessing), now lets do the math:

1000 (tib league) + 1000*2 (master) + 1000*2^2(diamond) + 1000*2^3(plat) + 1000*2^4 (gold) + 1000*2^5 (silver) + 1000*2^6 (bronze), so that are... about 127.000 players? May that be correct or are there waaay more (or less xd )? Again, this is just a wild guess and I would like to know the exact numbers. Why? It just interests me :P

    I would also want to know a developers point of view on this: doesn't seem that C&C rivals isn't that popular as expected. Also I would like to know what % of those players from bronze 3 to master 1 actually micro while playing? Some of the players only reach like gold or platinum rank due to the fact they are not micro-ing or scouting. Sometimes I encounter a very easy match where the opponent never got a chance on the nuke, a somewhat troublesome match where the nuke fired once per base and defeat from other players who probably managed to out-speed me. Also there was this match where I disconnected early and the opponent was fooling around and somehow set of the nuke by accident with one of his talons/hind. I also seem to confuse the talon's name due to the fact that it shares its name with another unit in C&C 4, please rename it something that can't be mixed up.
