According to Valve's Steam stats page, the peak usage of 8,020,813 gamers occurred around 12:12 PM PDT which was the closing hours of the popular Steam Summer Sale.

Valve's Steam is getting bigger and bigger every day and with the upcoming big launch of the Steam OS and Steam Machines, it will only get bigger.
