You could examine the web-server logs... But you either have to assume people only read it once, or count IPs and ignore AOL/DHCP/Hotmail etc users whose IPs will change more or less at random.
The problem is that you may not be able to count IP's. I know quite a few ISP's who are using a proxy.. :( I've been thinking about this and the only way to be sure.... uhm.. quite sure.. is to add a link in the signature which will ask people to click on that link.. You could think about adding a contest and let them win something, or just a question like "did you find this information usefull". It highly depends on the PPL who have subscribed. Remember to add a unique identifier to that link to prevent opions to be counted more then once. Bye, B.
