The majority of users will change their style using the style chooser at the bottom, rather than going into their options.

If they do it with the style chooser, then it's just setting a cookie, it doesn't record anything in the database. So there's no way to obtain a count of these users.

Somewhere, there's a vB3 mod that alters the style chooser so that it actually updates the user settings, just as if they had gone into the usercp (it leaves the cookie version in place for guests). I've been using it on my site (which has been on vb4 since 2010) for many years. It's loads better...

I found it...it's not a mod as such...just a discussion, but it's from this thread that I managed to make it (on vB3):

I asked at the very end how to make it work on vB4, I did eventually do it but it's too long ago for me to actually recall....
Aaah, that certainly explains it better. I'm sure that the majority of people changed it via the style chooser, yes... so it's just cookied. That's why the numbers didn't make sense to me. I know full well that the majority would use the default theme, but I also know that more than 10 people use other available styles. Was the mod for this ever actually made or just the bits of code in that thread?

I installed Skin view - show skin in postbit on my test board and also installed the plugin mentioned in the first post on that thread.
Maybe it will help you figure out what your trying to achieve.

Code:
Demo: http://blind-eddie.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1476
Login: Test Account One
Password: 00000000

Once there, change your style via the Quick Style Changer.
You will see it also changes in the postbit
