Agh. I hate you guys but I love you guys. I definitely see the error in my question. For those that are curious, this is where it originated from:

Page 115, I Am That:

Questioner: Still there must be some way of making out who has realized and who has not. If one is indistinguishable from the other, of what use is he?

Maharj: He who knows himself has no doubts about it. Nor does he care whether others recognize his state or not. Rare is the realized man who discloses his realization and fortunate are those who have met him, for he does it for their abiding welfare.

I got from this that there are a lot realized men who don't disclose their state or haven't met anybody who cared. This is why I got to wondering how many there are.
