Maybe @Velocio can provide the numbers you seek.
From personal experience I don’t spend much time out in the wilderness of the forums, life’s gotten in the way, and I keep to the territories where my longstanding interests lie. But judging by the amount of current projects and other threads which fill up my today feed, there seems to be plenty going on..

Without any evidence or numbers it's hard to confirm or deny this, but my observation is similar to salmonchilds. A handful of postalots dominate quite a few main threads.
I don't see much evidence of the forum growing in the way that it used to. And whilst there are new users, it doesn't seem like there are a lot of them; we seem to get a couple every now and then that post very frequently, rather than many new users, all the time, posting moderately. You're defintely right about old users slipping away. I just don't see tbem being replaced. And as for LLFGSS, that definitely seems to have died. And again, it's hard to tell, but I don't get the impression that there are a lot of female voices on the forum these days.
Those are just my observations.
