Hi Alex,
I think the most straightforward way would be to do something similar to what ALA does (http://www.ala.org.au/about-the-atlas/terms-of-use/citing-the-atlas/) e.g.:
For the whole site: ‘iNaturalist.org web application at http://www.inaturalist.org. Accessed 10 June 2013.'
And for a specific observation etc: ‘iNaturalist.org web application at http://www.inaturalist.org/observations/284072. Accessed 10 June 2013.'
Regarding those statistics, as of today:
* users: 16,993
* observations: 278,478
* projects: 836

Is there a standard citation that iNaturalist would prefer for citing the website? 

Also, is there anywhere I can get current statistics about the number of:

   * users,
   * observations,
   * projects

?

Thanks!
