Good question, unfortunately I have no idea as I don't tend to count (but to my recollection it varies anyway). I do know that it's very rare for me to go without a nosebleed for a day though.

I've heard the following when trying to describe how severe a nosebleed is: 
When you get a nosebleed, do you need a kleenex (tissue), a towel, a cup, or a bucket?
