I really think it depends on where you live. The Food pyramid is based on a 2000 calorie a day diet. I think on average it is still that.

Worldwide the average is 2,470 calories per day but there are large differences from one country to the next.
Americans have the highest calorie intake in the world at an average of 3,330 per person per day and just behind are the Dutch at 3,320 per day. In joint third place are Russians and Australians on 3,280 per day (Australia used to be top).
In many developing nations the average calories per head per day are between 1,500 and 2,000, Indonesia for example is 1,790. In the worlds poorest countries the total is less than 1,500 and in Burkina Faso for example it is 1,220. In times of drought and famine the figures fall significantly.
The recommended daily consumption for women living in developed nations is 1,800 to 2,000 per day and for men it is 2,500 to 2,700 per day. These are averegaes and don't take account of metabolism and lifestyle.
The minimum per day is approximately 1,500 calories - this is what'sneeded just to keep your body ticking over (roughly one calorie per minute). Anything less than this is likely to lead to malnutrition and diet related conditions.
There is no daily maximum as it depends on the person and what they're doing. For example, mountaineers and polar explorers need to take in over 10,000 calories a day if they are to maintain their bodies (a lot of these calories are used just to keep warm). Active sports enthusiasts regularly need 5,000 or more calories a day and a manual worker 3 to 4,000 a day.
