It is currently: (Planet - Number of Moons)
Mercury - 0
Venus - 0
Earth - 1
Mars - 2
Ceres - planetoid
Jupiter - 63
Saturn - 56
Uranus - 27
Neptune - 13
Pluto and Charion (a binary planet system) - 2
2003 UB313 (currently named "XENA") - planetoid
The planetoids have a total of 6 moons...
This is the current solar system, but it might get changed. There is a huge debate going on about how many planets our solar system has. It seems they have found a true definition of the word 'planet' tho.
The current definition is:
1) Objects with true masses below the limiting mass for thermonuclear fusion of deuterium (currently calculated to be 13 Jupiter masses for objects of solar metallicity) that orbit stars or stellar remnants are "planets" (no matter how they formed). The minimum mass/size required for an extrasolar object to be considered a planet should be the same as that used in our Solar System.
2) Objects with true masses above the limiting mass for thermonuclear fusion of deuterium are "brown dwarfs", no matter how they formed or where they are located.
3) Free-floating objects in young star clusters with masses below the limiting mass for thermonuclear fusion of deuterium are not "planets", but are "sub-brown dwarfs" (or most appropriate name).
Other bodies orbeting the sun(Not Planets):
-The Asteriod Belt between Mars and Jupiter
-The Kiuper Belt just out of the orbit of Plut and Charon
-Several Comets
-The Oort Cloud, which is a 'bubble' made up on billions of
asteriods that surrownd our solar system. Our sun is the center
of it and it has a radius of 1 light year.

Pluto and Neptune take turns being the farthest away. Because of their eliptical orbits are offset, it is not always Pluto that is farthest.
