@garrettchung thanks for your useful information. Yes, I agree to use segment dashboard with A udience Size widget to determinate the segment volumes.
I have a question, you mentioned that this dashaboard is refreshed daily. What if, we need to find the segment volumes in short notice of few hours. Is the Segment Job through API for the segment created or use the profiles values that we have in the Segment builder?

You can use the Segments UI or API - I can think of these 3 ways:

hi @Luca_Lattarini, most users can make use of the Segment Dashboards: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/dashboards/guides/segments.html?lang=en
These dashboards currently refresh daily.
1. First understand the identities supported by the Destination. The most obvious here would be email address but it could be another cross-device ID.
2. Use the Segment Dashboard to understand the identity composition of the Segment. This will provide the maximum addressable audience according to the AEP data.

It would not have at the accuracy. You could use the Segment estimates and apply the ratio of identities to get a rough number. Obviously, it will depend on the Segment definition i.e if you want to send emails based on web events which have a low authentication rate then the Profile count might be high but low in emails, etc

The UI result is only approximate and also the segment qualification happens sequentially. There is no way in AEP that you can get an exact number at any given time - not even via API. So, there will always be that discrepancy ~ a few percentage points.

Adding few more ways to know the segment count.
select count(*) from profile_snapshot_export_e1f3148a_5007_45cb_96cf_d34e1472a7e6 where
segmentmembership['ups'][' a4646d3d-2cf6-4c56-aaf3-ceda7a42506h].status IN ('realized', 'existing')
