Well depends how much traffic it has, how much registered members activity you have and how many discussions going on.

That is what i would say are the main stuff to look at.

I wouldn't say # of members. I would get more specific like # of members active in the last 30 days. A forum could have 500 members and 455 of them are spam bots.

It's all on revenue. Why else would someone spend $XXX for a forum of size Y?

Not just revenue, it's also potential revenue. User activity comes into both.
