As with the ingress policer, IMQ doesn't care much about the number of users/ip as long as you don't want to create an IMQ device for each of these users (in fact some people are running setups with >300 imqs, but i don't know how well its working). If you don't need features of "advanced qdiscs" like htb but only want to slow down i would not use imq but the ingress policer since it saves you one extra queue.
