there's 11 digits for an ip right? And each digit can range from 0-9
so 10 factorial raised to the 11th
10!^11

4294967296 different IP addresses. you get this by
256*256*256*256.
this works because IP addresses are as follow: 256.256.256.256 ranging from the number one to 256 in ecah space

As many that can fit the following
x.x.x.x
xx.xx.xx.xx
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
etc. and you can altenate too so like
x.xx.xxx.xx
as long as its 4 groups of numbers. varying from 1 to 3 in a group.

virtually unlimited. If the current addressing system proves inadequate, they can easily change it by adding another set of upper or lower level domain numbers.

IPv4 (###.###.###.###) uses 32-bit (4 byte) addresses, which limits the address space to 4,294,967,296 possible unique addresses.
of course technology is advancing and IPv6 may eventually be used (###.###.###.###.###.###)
