Every man woman and child could be conscripted into the service of the imperium if it was needed. And Trillions is actually a bit light. 1/10 of most populations serve in the guard, with most worlds haveing atleast 1 billion people on it. And with a galaxy full of worlds, a trillion is a lowball estimate.

There are billions of regiments. Times that by 5000 for a low estimate, about 20 or so for a high estimate. Answer = Lots.

The imperium only has a 'more than a million worlds' some hiveworlds have populations of 100 billion but many would just be agri worlds with ~million people, so i would say 500 - 1000 billion.
