  Hi. I don’t think you can truly find out, because of the way RSS feeds work. However, the following thread suggests a workaround:

  If you use feedburner, and people don’t like that, they will end up using what the want anyway.

  There are so many feed services out there that trying to get any sort of accurate count is near impossible. Feedburner pulls it once, but may serve it up to 1000 subscribers. The same is true with the other services. It would be difficult for WP to pry all that information out of all the different services and then compile it.

  Thanks for the link Aerodissey :)

  and Thanks for the info Thesacredpath.

  I guess adding feed burner is the only choice. I’ll think about it.

  You’re welcome, bukonusikae. Just kidding… bokunosekai (Now we’re even for misspelling each other’s member names ;-)
