Just an interesting list I compiled after looking at many hosts and doing some research:

HostGator
4871 of alexa:
http://www.alexa.com/data/details/?url=hostgator.com
31,067 domains:
http://www.webhosting.info/webhosts...s/HOSTGATOR.COM

LunarPages
2176 on alexa:
http://www.alexa.com/data/details/?url=lunarpages.com
domains: doesn't seem to load... i will update this when it does.

Powweb
2770 on alexa:
http://www.alexa.com/data/details/?url=powweb.com
84,062 domains:
http://www.webhosting.info/webhosts...ains/POWWEB.COM

Netfirms
868 on alexa:
http://www.alexa.com/data/details/?url=netfirms.com
87184 domains:
http://www.webhosting.info/webhosts...ns/NETFIRMS.COM

BTW, for those of you who aren't aware of webhosting.info, it has a great service... you can check specific information on hosts such as how many domains they own, their growth etc.

Does anyone know of any other large hosting services?

I think Site5 must be a pretty big host.. and of course the free hosts that 'newbies' still use (geocities, for example)
