I just figured out a way to find how many "followers" you have.

For me: https://www.google.com/search?q=MathWiz … p;filter=0

For RHY: https://www.google.com/search?q=RHY3756 … p;filter=0

The part under the search box that says "About 247 results (0.15 seconds)" that I have about 247 followers.

Um... for me, it shows my friends, and that's it.  I know I have at least 1 subscriber (because of my alts.)  It also shows a bunch of ads for "Gentron motors" or something like that.

i think you have to directly change the url

Yep.

You need to click on the link at the bottom:

In order to show you the most relevant results, we have omitted some entries very similar to the 1 already displayed.
If you like, you can repeat the search with the omitted results included.

Got it! My name's so long it is automatically truncated, so I need to search Hardmath1...

EDIT: 163 friends!

Neat find!

Scratch 2.0 will show your followers on your profile page. I'm not sure which one's off, but I got drastically different numbers from the two. Using MathWizz's google method I get a result of "About 332" and the followers box on my alpha profile page shows 254 followers.

Doesn't work for me.

You can also use
site:http://scratch.mit.edu/users/showfriends/* NAMEOFUSER


That's usually less bugful.

That shows who YOU are following. Not who is following you.

no, it gave me the same results as your method

Nope, I suggest you have a look at the URL again 
Here, I'll paste it for your convenience.
site:http://scratch.mit.edu/users/showfriends/* NAMEOFUSER

Notice the asterisk * and the space before NAMEOFUSER.

Oooohhh... I thought you meant go to that URL, not google it. xD

no, site: is part of the query 

Nice! There are 46 users who are friends with me (45 if you don't count myself, I friended myself  ).
