Somewhere between 20,000 (number of t-shirts sent out) and 50,000 (their stated next target). Not too bad for a startup but a drop in the proverbial ocean of search.

how one can run search engine on 2-3M annual budget(with assumption avg subscription is $10/m)?..

How? For the vast, vast majority of people, paying for search is insane. And that includes the people who pay for other services.

Judging from how often Kagi comes up here (HN), I actually thought they were far bigger than they are.

The percentage of HN users in their customer base is very probably far higher than the percentage of HN users in the general population. Many orders of magnitude ;)
