Or you could just look it up, most people don't this info is available from a variety of places for established companies (such as Hoovers and Dun & Bradstreet).

Search them for free here: http://nuggety.com/u/nuggety/company-or-business-search

Hoovers and D&B numbers are incredibly inaccurate for new and privately held companies. I've seen them show $20m/year companies as $1m/year and vice-versa. They don't actually know, they estimate or allow companies to self-register, along with crawling public filings and the like.

Also, btw, I tried nuggety just now and got prompted to sign up for D&B for every search on their site.

The OP method is much simpler and at least as accurate.

Or you could use privco. They seem to be good. Someone in another thread mentioned MOZ. And their stated numbers are similar to what Privco quoted.
