I say about 2000

 

Pretty sure the active number of GMs is less than that and is closer to 1500.

I'd say the bounds are at zero and  8 billion.

There are probably around 1500 GMs in the world right now. I'd say only about a third of them would use chess.com, so my official answer is 500 chess.com users are FIDE grandmasters.

There are 48 pages, so there are 47*25+22=1222 GMs, though many are inactive.
