When you are online at Orkut, you show on the top in your friend's friend list. Whenever you goto Home page on your profile, the people shown in your friend list are the people who are online.

Nope. I think that list shows 'most recently online' friends.

And that does not mean your friends are online. It's the list of those friends who had recently logged on. Not the ones who are still logged on. Suppose I log in and then log out in 1 minute, my friends will see my name on top of their other friends those are online. But I am not online, I was recenly logged in. (I hope that you get what I mean).

Is there any way to know which one and again how many of your friends are online?

Weird. I thought the ones that show up on the top of my friends list are the ones that have recently paid my profile a visit. I know there is a list of those who do that as well but mostly it doesnt seem to get updated that well.
