The "Japan Baseball Federation" sounds a lot like the Baseball Federation of Japan [Wikipedia] (hereinafter referred to as BFJ), which is the head of amateur baseball in Japan.
I appears that the BFJ is a sub-committee of the Japan Amateur Baseball Association (JABA). The information about BFJ on the JABA site seems to be limited to the organization's bylaws, a list of board members, some schedules for international competition, and a few PDFs of news releases.
As with most long standing bureaucratic organizations in Japan, they have not yet entered the 21st century with regard to communication. So I my recommendation to you is to send a FAX to JABA asking for an updated number of amateur adult baseball players in Japan. The FAX number is in the lower-right hand corner of this page. If anyone is able to help you, that's the place.
Gambatte.

About
This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.
It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
