Hi Verena,
Here's a quick and dirty approach using the Quarry query system:
https://quarry.wmflabs.org/query/9463
- this counts all registered accounts (in this case, on the English
Wikipedia) with a registration date before January 2016, January 2015,
etc - in other words, a snapshot at the end of every calendar year.
Change the time divisions or project ("enwiki_p") as needed for your
purposes. (It takes a while to run, though...).
I don't think it would be easy to get *all* registered accounts across
all wikis - there will be a lot of double-counting until single-user
login was finally sorted out.
Andrew.

Hello everybody,
does anybody know a way how to get the number of registered accounts for
specific dates without the criteria of the number of edits, just the
registered accounts, preferrably with publicly available data.
In case you are wondering why we want to know: We are currently gathering
statistics about the development of editor numbers and this is one of our
metrics.
Best
Verena
