It depends on the species. Generally larger mammals give birth to smaller litters. You can usually find the range of litter sizes by searching for the specific animal. I couldn't find a website that compares litter sizes of large numbers of different animals, but here are a few that contain charts comparing litter sizes of various small selections of animals.

Edit: Here is one that is much better. The chart you want starts about 1/3 of the way down the page. There is a huge number of animals on the list:

It looks like the information for the long-tailed weasel on this site is a misprint. It should read 6-7 young, not 67.
