Google Voice may not have made it onto the iPhone yet, but the service has still managed to attract more than 1.4 million users.

In a story posted on Friday, BusinessWeek reported that Google Voice has grown to 1.419 million users, 40 percent — 570,000 — of whom use the service every day. The information comes from documents in which Google responded to questions from US regulators interested in whether the search giant is improperly blocking calls to phone numbers in specific rural areas of the country.

But while the information about the number of users of the service was included in the documents Google handed over, they were not meant to be made public.
