Please don't cross-post to the dev list too, that list is for internal Solr/Lucene development discussions.
As Jay says, "it depends". The general advice is that you should use a single index (perhaps replicated) before you start trying to go the distributed route (sharding). It's like asking "how big is a Java program?"... As for "how many documents", you need to hook up a stress test process (say jMeter or SolrMeter) and fire requests at your server at your target speed to determine whether you have too many documents on the server or not. And it also depends upon what your hardware is. As asked, your question is completely unanswerable. I've seen 40-50M documents on a single machine. And that wasn't necessarily a very big one.
