It's not that simple.  Every system has different requirement and 
configuration, and therefore load is different.  Some people record 
lots of calls or use G729, this changes the maximum # of users 
radically.

Transcoding of music or voice mail also adds load.

Bandwidth constraints are a major factor for SIP or IAX call 
termination.

Ultimately you need to set up a server that does what you need and see 
how it performs. Usually hardware overkill is a good bet,  but you 
don't need to go crazy.
