For reference, in the pic Statueglow.png I can count 63 pairs of glowing eyes; given the angle and accounting for the statues at ground level, it would be safe to assume that there are 3 or 4 times the number of statues seen in the image, so that would be somewhere between 189 and 132 avatars before Aang. I'm fairly confident that there are no higher tiers of statues than the ones seen... heck; it's possible that one of the ones seen in the pic is the First Avatar! (the right-most one in the top tier).

If we can determine a reasonably good approximation of average length of an avatar's "reign", we could actually speculate on a count of years BSC!
