Answer
Scientifically: You have to do is measure the amount of saliva you produce per lick, measure the volume of the Tootsie Pop, find the amount each lick your saliva takes away from the pop, and divide that much by the total volume of the Tootsie Pop.
Anecdotally: "I just did it today and it takes 446 licks to get to the chewy center of a loli pop. both of my friends did it today too and we are all 13 years old. One of them got 442 and the other got 449. So, around 450 licks to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop."
From Tootsie Roll Inc.: "We've been asking the question since 1970. Many have tried to lick their way to the center of the Tootsie Pop, and many have failed -- for they couldn't help but bite. But for those proud few who do make it to the center, and manage to keep count of how many licks it takes, we hold a special place in our hearts."
Answer
It has been scientifically proven by professional tootsie roll lovers, that it takes 127 licks to get the the middle of a tootsie pop, where the tootsie roll center is located. However, those who did not see the center after 127 licks, couldn't stand the pressure, and bit the tootsie pop, causing the center to be visible. I hope this answers your question.

A lot, I suppose.

It all depends on the many ways, people actually lick their Tootsie Pops, I had Tootsie Pops many times, when I was a kid and I don't even count the number of licks, it actually takes to reach the center. I seen the commercial on TV many times too, perhaps 225, 229, or 235 times.
As the commercial said (" The world May Never Know") =D
I dont know...because I've tried to count before but I always forget the number. And it's always different.
