A ballpark figure is an "educated guess" (or experienced guesstimate).
Example: I might guess notebooks cost 4-5 dollars each (not on sale). I need 2 notebooks, 1 package of pens, and a new backpack. I guess it will cost around $40.00 as a ballpark figure. I actually spend $39.95 US, and bought a package of pencils too.
