He's been on the frontpage of PCgamer and wiki confirmed the sales stats. He currently has a few coders, and some marketing guys on board so it seems (info on his blog).
from wiki:
Minecraft has received generally favorable responses from critics, and has had notably large numbers of sales. As of October 2010, Minecraft surpassed 1,500,000 registered users, and over 480,000 purchases.[12] In September 2010, after a "free to play" weekend, the game had a spike in sales of over 25,000 purchases in 24 hours.[13][14] The game has been praised for the creative freedom it grants its players in-game, and for how dynamic its overall gameplay is.[15][16][17] PC Gamer listed Minecraft as the fourth-best game to play at work in issue 200.[18] A review of the alpha version, by Scott Munro of the Daily Record, called it "already something special" and urged readers to buy it.
