How many Warrant Officers are there to a company?

That depends on what sort of company you had in mind. An aviation company will have several, as most helicopter pilots are WOs. An infantry company will have none, as there are no WO positions within the infantry CMF. Note that this applies only to the US military - British and Commonwealth militaries will differ, as their Warrant Officers ranks are the equivalent of Senior NCO ranks in the US military.
