It is very difficult to even estimate the number of "Mormon fundamentalists" or those who continue the practice of plural marriage, because many of them are very secretive about their lifestyle.

Estimates of fundamentalists or plural marriage followers as a whole have been estimated anywhere between 20,000 and 60,000.

Here are the best estimates for various Fundamentalist groups that I could find:

FLDS (Warren Jeffs' followers): 6,000 to 10,000+
AUB ('Allred Group'): 10,000+
Bountiful Community (Winston Blackmore's followers): 700+ members
Latter-day Church of Christ ('Kingston group'): 2,000+ members
True and Living Church ('Harmston group'): 400+ members
Centennial Park: 1,500+ members
Naylor/Nielsen group: 250+ members
Confederate Nations of Israel: 400+ members
Righteous Branch: 100+ members
Church of the Firstborn of the Fullness of Times (Joel LeBaron): 1,000 members
Independent Fundamentalists: 7,000 to 15,000
