This is a cool idea. Although isn't 5 digits a little limited?

We've build this device for local businesses such as little stores, shops, bars, restaurants...etc, it seems that the average number of fans of these types of fan pages is comprised between 0 and 99 999 fans.. Plus we are sure that Facebook pages with over 100 000 fans would prefer a custom version of Fliike.

This could be solved by adding a period and "K" flaps. That way if it got bigger it could display 212.5K... not big deal for small businesses but I could see you offering that to a bigger chain of businesses.

I like that approach too, but a big part of it is seeing the numbers change in real time. Your approach would have to wait 100 like's, but I guess at that amount it still can change fairly frequently.
