Close to One Million

Considering the fact that roughly one hundred thousand creatures gets uploaded every 24 hours and the total count is now at approximately nine hundred thousand the Sporepedia should reach 1 million very very soon. Maxis commented earlier on this in GamesIndustry.biz:

The creativity and passion that the community is putting into their creatures is spectacular. The development team has spent the last 24 hours checking out the amazing creations racing in from all corners of the globe - with peak volume hitting more than 1,000 creatures being shared a minute.
