To estimate the cost of distributing this new collection, I'd like to know how big this collection is expected to be

We typically set a around 6 default top sites. The exact set of sites will be region-specific.

and how often it will be updated.

Not very often. Typically the list would change when we form new partner relationships or when we believe a site doesn't provide enough value anymore to users in a specific region / when a new player becomes popular in a specific region.
