According to the 2002 Pontifical Yearbook (Annuario Pontificio):
4,541 bishops
405,178 priests (of which 265,781 are diocesan priests)
27,824 permanent deacons
55,057 professed religious who are not priests
801,185 professed women religious
126,365 missionary laymen
These numbers, of course, do not include the “secret priests” which may/may not be present in regions where your religion is likely to get you imprisoned/killed.
