Assuming all universes were identical and the only difference is when someone was asked to think of an integer n, a positive real number less than 1, or one thing in an infinite set. If in all the universes, all the possible choices were taken, then there must be an infinite number of universes as well.
It takes a finite amount of time to say/think a number, so the set of possible numbers any human (or anything) can randomly generate (can a human randomly generate a number) before the universe ends. I'd guess at 1 digit per second we are limited to maybe 10^20 digits?
