Well I did just look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Prefixindex/Template:Coor and didn't see any brewery-related navboxes.

Note that there are other templates for specialized types of disambiguation pages (e.g. {{geodis}}, {{hndis}}, {{roaddis}} etc. to list places, people, roads sharing roughly the same name), not to mention the commonly used shorthand "{{dab}}" for the main template. A total membership count of [[Category:Disambiguation]] and its subcategories, if duplicate titles (pages in more than one category) are ignored would be the most accurate obtainable number, and much higher than your estimate.

In other news, although I realize there would be countless duplicates, I'd be interested in seeing some statistics on the subcategories of "people by occupation", "people by nationality", etc. etc. Just to see what sort of bio-topics are most and least likely to be written about. Just the post the raw numbers, don't need a graph. You can post a link to it here if everybody promises not to panic about the number of cricket players.
