Obviously some of use would like more or less but this is to see how many people actually have

I have no idea, I haven't counted,  not on my old bat, or any of the 3 I am thinking of using next season.

No idea. An average amount I'd say. Never bothered counting - mine's here so you can count if you want!

For me the number of grains doesn't really matter.  Just as long as the thing pings.....thats what counts!  But to answer your question my H4L 666 LE has 11 grains.

Only about 8/9ish on both of my match bats - im not a massive grain lover to be honest and out of the bats I have I've found around the 8/9/10ish mark they seem to perform better.

15 or so. But I picked it solely on pick-up and after tapping it up. Will probably be changing next season, and will not be fussed about grains I suppose!

I think the answer to your question is that we all use bats that we think ping something special, generally (and I'll confirm that buzzes selection do and he can confirm that mine does). Most, but not all, don't care about grains!
