The {vb:raw numbermembers} is something that can only be used in vbulletin templates. You could do something like echo $numbermembers, but you need to calculate $numbermembers first. If you look in forum.php and search for "BOARD STATISTICS" you can find the section that calculates it.

Also, for that code to work you would need to get the 'userstats' loaded from the datastore, so you'd need

$specialtemplates = array('userstats');

before you include global.php.

Edit: now that I look at it more, there isn't much of a calculation for numbermembers, it just formats the number.
