E-trade and TDAmeritrade report the figures quarterly.

Schwab reported 245,200 trades per day for July. They state that they have 6,800,000 customer trading accounts.
There are other firms that also have on line brokerage for which figures are not available, but these three would make up probably 50% of the trade. 16,000,000 accounts for these three and 540,000 transactions a day would extrapolate into about 32,000,000 accounts and over 1,000,000 transactions per day. More or less.
