That's double the 500 million it hit in July 2010 - what now seems like a lifetime but was a little more than two years ago. August 2008 marked another milestone, 100 million.
Meanwhile, Facebook is in talks with the Australian Privacy Commissioner about claims that private messagescan be seen by users' friends.
The social networking site has issued a reassurance to its 11.5 million monthly active users in Australia that there have been no breaches of privacy.
The website has come under fire from users claiming that old private messages are now available for anyone to see.
But according to Facebook, only public wall posts are visible.
A Facebook spokeswoman said the company was working with the privacy commissioner, who was yet to raise any concerns with them.
Mia Garlick, head of policy and communications for Facebook in Australia, said: "A number of users have raised concerns about what they believe to be private messages appearing on their timeline. Investigations have shown them to be public wall posts that were always visible.
