According to
this article from mid-2009, Merry Christmas has sold 4,993,000.
Then, according
this article from earlier this year its sales are 5,298,000.
That's sales of 305,000 in four Christmas seasons (2009-2012). 305 / 4 = ~76K. So that's how much Merry Christmas sells each Christmas season, on average.
The sales comparison between the two for ha other albums is interesting - Music Box, Daydream, Butterfly, and #1s each increased by ~100K.
