I'm a Coinbase customer and they list publicly on their blog that they've been processing $15 million in bitcoin buys and sells as of May of this year.  See http://blog.coinbase.com/post/49782323057/coinbase-now-processing-15m-per-month-in-bitcoin-buys for the source.  It's probably more than that now, but that's the most recent data that they've listed.

You can find data for Satoshi Dice in this thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/satoshi-dice-statistical-analysis-80312

Edit: Also, Just-Dice.com has even more BTC wagers than Satoshi Dice, but they are off blockchain transactions for the most part. All of those statistics are published up to the minute.

I am trying to collect as much data as possible to get a rough idea how much money is being spent in bitcoins market place.  I am intersted in doing this as a result of many claims that Silk Road is the "driving marketplace of bitcoin" - which I don't think is particularly true.  If you have any links, or information about the below companies please share, I will keep it updated as more information comes in.  If you have any other suggestions on other bitcoin related merchants let me know.

BitPay ~$5 million/month
CoinBase ~15 million/month *February buy and sales total | *email
BitcoinStore Lifetime sales: $662,993 | $662,993/7(?) months = $94,713/month
BitMit ?
CoinGig ~$5,000/month
Avalon 8 million in chip orders? *from comments here on bitcointalk, looking for links
Butterfly Labs ?
KnC owner refuses to answer
AsicMiner ~$6,711,800 (unknown time frame) | Blade Sales Income: 29,594.75BTC + USB Sales Income: 37,524.00BTC
Satoshi Dice ?
BTCQuick ~ $320,721.23/month

The only data I can find on Silk Roads annual sales is roughly $22 Million a year, i.e. ~$1.8 million/month so BitPay alone technically processes more than Silk Road alone.
