As of 2012, there are over 201 million accounts created since launch. There's approximately 18 million active players per month; around 15 million free players, 3 million members. That number is rapidly increasing, as Jagex received over 1 million new accounts since they hit 200 million within months. There are approximately 500,000 to 1 million unique logins per day, with the ability, at any time, to find 80,000-150,000 players logged in, even on slow points in the day. Bots are at an all-time low, so most of the players in the statistics are completely legitimate. The statistics will decrease a bit after Jagex implements their final anti-bot software that will permanently disable all bots. Jagex is also banning over 1,000 bots every day.
Jagex has estimated that they may reach 300 million accounts in the next 5 to 10 years, and they've stated they're building a game to last 10, 20, 30+ years in the future, which means that it's likely the numbers will become MUCH larger in that time. The game's playerbase is increasing, and is estimated to potentially double or triple in 2013 due to coming updates.
There are usually about 130 thousand people online
runescape.com yes runescape does not have to be downloaded but I think (and many others do as well) that people who play runescape have no lives
There's usually 100,000+ People on there daily, but over 2-5 million people in total play the game.
Runescape is a all aged game. But younger people might find it harder to play. :)
Some may get bored by the game, and stop playing. Especially those that can't afford a membership. But many more people join the game, and even free-to-play players can play for many months or even years.
No, Wii Sports is. Runescape is classified as a free-to-play game, so it doesn't really qualify anyway. Yes of course, Jagex and runescape have received awards for many things, it has the best variety of things to do, and best community of people. Also over 1 Million people play a day!

Technically, all kinds of people can play RuneScape - it's not about the weak or the tough - it's just about how much they like the game to the point where it becomes addicting, regardless of how tough you are.
Yes - any kind of people of all races can play RuneScape. On RuneScape, you can be whoever you like, whatever you like (as long as it's human) and if you're ashamed of your race, you can hide behind your character in the game - of course, you can always change your appearance later in the game if you wish. There is no racial barrier as to who can play RuneScape - according to some laws in the United States and many other countries, these kind of racial exclusion is illegal as we are all equal.
