Pew Internet
<http://www.pewinternet.org/2011/06/16/part-3-social-networking-site-users-have-more-friends-and-more-close-friends/>
has some data on this but I would imagine that without some contextual
parameters that just "Facebook" users is too broad. I'd also try looking by
demographic characteristics, or other limiters.

Good luck,
Lauri
