SELECT YYYY, COUNT(*) FROM mytable GROUP BY YYYY
This way you will get a list looking something like:
1940 1
1943 2
1947 6
1948 3
....

$user_per_year=array(array("Year","# Users");
$result=mysql_query("SELECT YYYY, COUNT(*) FROM mytable GROUP BY YYYY");
while(row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
array_push($user_per_year,array($row[0],$row[1]));
}
print_r($user_per_year);
