Sorry to bring it up again, but at the Morannon it was 6500 to 7000 good guys Vs ten times or more than 10 times. So.

Goodies: 6.500
Baddies: 80.000

What the movies say,m be it HP or LOTR, should not be taken into consideration for this challenge. After all, just like Wolfgang Petersen did not write thje Iliad, Peter Jackson did not write the LOTR (and whoever directed the HP movies might have had JKR as a consultant, but still didn't write the books).

Besides, I've had a look at some of the supporting merchandise material for LOTR, from Fact Files to collectors' stuff and "guides to the movies" and most of them are compiled by guys who have hardly even read the books.
