Well, it ain't elegant, but here goes.

First of all you need sufficient authority.  You will likely need to adopt
*ALLOBJ authority.

The run DSPOBJD *ALL/*ALL *USRPRF OUTPUT(*OUTFILE).  You then need to read
that output file in a CL program, and run DSPUSRPRF for each user profile,
specifying TYPE(*BASIC) OUTPUT(*OUTFILE) OUTMBR(*FIRST *ADD). 

When you're done, this file will have all of the information you are
looking for all users on the system.  You could process it in a variety of
fashions.  OPNQRYF would be useful is getting a count by group profile.

Hope this helps.
