That would be difficult to calculate. There are a lot of factors in that question:
·If you want a true average, you'd have to calculate all of the eleven million subscribers' characters that reached level 80.
·There are a large number of people that played Vanilla and reached the level cap long before the Burning Crusade came out. Their /played time will be significantly longer than someone that started during BC, thus skewing the average.
·Again, the majority of people that played had at least one level 80 character months before Wrath of the Lich King came out. Thus, the time spent at the level cap will skew the average.
If, however, you're just asking how long it takes to get from level 1 to level 80 today, I'd estimate that it can be anywhere from 5 - 10 days /played, depending on how focused you are, how much time you spend in towns versus out questing, if you divert time to get achievements, etc. However, it can be done in less time, or conversely, if you're puttering about enjoying the game, it will probably take longer. It's all rather subjective, because a lot of it depends on the focus of the individual.

I agree there are a few factors but it is pretty easy to determine. Of any characters that have been leveled just since Wotlk has come out simply subtract "time played this level" (assuming 80 of course) from total "time played".
For second 80, which was started January of this year, I have 12 days /played while leveling. I would like to mention that character had no BoA gear to speed his leveling at all.
My previous 80 had been played since TBC so it would not be an accurate number. I would guess that most people that focus on leveling it would likely take 12-15 days. They really have helped out the leveling aspect of the game and made it easier.

My most recent alt is my shadow priest which took about 8 days 1-80. 5 days for Old World, 1 day for Burning Crusade, 2 days for Wrath. Old World should be faster these days with earlier mount. When I got this alt to 60, mounts were still at level 40 and 60.
As far as average total time played, my main is around 45 days played. That's with BC and Wotlk raiding. I started playing after BC was out.

I'd agree with the average being somwhere in the 5 - 10 days /played time
my last 1 - 80 took just 5 days 11 hours but then that was with Heirloom gear

5-10 days is pretty accurate I think. I just checked on my paladin who is my only character that wasn't capped at 70 who is now 80 and he got to 80 in just under 10 days. I'm sure I could cut quite a bit of time off of that if I level another character to 80 but I always find myself at many points not being very productive while leveling.
There's tons of factors involved- recruit a friend, boa's, using some kind of quest helper, how much time you spend playing only on rested experience etc.
I've heard LFD is pretty sweet for low levels so I'm fairly interested in seeing how that goes. I may start playing a lower level dude again soon.

I thinik it took roughly......7 days or so from 1 to 80. It got faster and faster with BoAs though.

It took my Priest roughly 5 days /played with only the BoA shoulders. My Priest is my fourth level 80 character. She's up to ~20 days now that I've been raiding with her.
