Is there an easy way to view how many bitcoins are willing to be bought at the highest bid price and how many bitcoins are willing to be sold at the lowest ask price?  I know certain sites may show these values, like localbitcoins.com - but I'm looking for something exchange based.  I haven't seen a way to really see the big/ask size on Mt. Gox

And for people who have traded on Mt. Gox before, what are reasonable order sizes to get filled quickly?

Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

MtGoxLive will show a popup with that number if you hover over the depth line (either for bids or the asks):
 - http://www.MtGoxLive.com

ClarkMoody has a tool for that ... click on "Calculators" button.  It even computes the "slippage".
