grh.sixxs.net shows around 5600 prefixes for most participants. But it
depends on filters as well, I run strict filters (no more than /35 in PA
space) and have around 4300 prefixes.

I don't think the absolute number of prefixes is a valid metric. There
is too many more-specific junk with partial visibility floating around.
