I decided to look it up. I found the following at: http://www.amnesty.ca/SaudiArabia/3.php

"The most lashes in a single case recorded by Amnesty International is 4,000. These were imposed on Muhammad ’Ali al-Sayyid, an Egyptian national who was convicted of robbery in 1990. The sentence was carried out at a rate of 50 lashes every two weeks. Each time he received the lashes he was left with bruised or bleeding buttocks, unable to sleep or sit for three or four days afterwards. "

I send a polite email to the Saudi Embassey a couple of times a week with a religious question or two weekly and cc Condi Rice. Have yet to receive a reply from the Saudis.
