Whenever I log onto Skype it claims there are 4.x million users online. Y!M has by far more users than that. I think Skype, though I do use it for IM here and there is many generations of features behind most other IM clients, and has a lot less users than Y!M. Julian, I think you may be wrong.

What about Skype? I suspect that Skype has overtaken YM! and is well on the way to overtake MSN. The real problem here is which statistic we're using. Is it downloads, accounts, or average currently online? And how does the Skype API developer community compare with the equivalents for YM! and MSN? Really, you can't talk about IM now without mentioning Skype. “Yahoo Messenger is the second largest IM network after MSN”. What about Skype?
