It provides you the HIDS data - you'll have to get the NIDS data elsewhere.

IDC provides this data.

Worldwide revenue data (in $M) we have for HIDS and 
host-firewalls (some of
which have HIDS functionality) is:

                  1999    2000    2001    2002    2003    2004
Host-Resident Firewalls   18      40      90      180     
340 540
(workstations only)
Host-Resident IDS 43      87      131     166     194     
213 (all
hosts including mainframe)

Er, that looks to me like HIDS vs. firewall devices with 
HIDS - helpful,
but not exactly what I was looking for.  Does that report 
(which one is
this from?) have anything detailing HIDS vs. NIDS (not 
firewall devices?),
and/or anything relating to # of units shipped?  ($$$ figures can be
misleading, IMHO).  Or am I missing something obvious here?

Thanks!
