I don't know the exact numbers, but the race has been officially announced as a sell-out the last three years that it was held (2011, 2010, 2008). News media generally report 100,000 3-day tickets sold each year. In my experience, almost all seats are actually filled for qualifying and practice and, if the weather is nice, most seats are filled for Friday practice. So, in general, race day attendance is 100,000+ and 3-day attendance is about 300,000.
