Longest time for an X system (this desktop at work) was almost 200 days (I forget exactly how many. I think 180something). I forget why I rebooted... either kernel upgrade or X crash, the latter of which hasn't happened yet with X4.x. My machine at home reboots every month or so when the power goes out... haven't bought a UPS for home yet :-(
