According to Steam’s stats page, on January 7th Steam surpasses 14 million online users. While now, however, its back to the normal 12 to 13 million.

It important to note, that these numbers include players that just have a Steam game running in the background, not necessary playing it.
In 2012, Valve hit 5 million concurrent users. And passed 12 million concurrent users in January 2015.
It’s no coincidence that January is a time when Valve routinely hits user milestones—with just a few weeks after Christmas and its Winter Sale, more players are sure to have adopted the gaming service.
