How many children are diagnosed with classic autism?

I'm curious how many children are actually being diagnosed with classic autism.How many children are diagnosed with classic autism?

Yes Aspergers and PDD-NOS are all part of the broad spectum of autism. My son has what they would call "classic atuism". He would fall under the catagory of being severly autistic.
