Meltzer did suggest 350,000 homes in 2015. Brandon Howard did an article on the numbers here:

Here's a chart with their estimated viewers:

Basically, when ROH was on Destination America at the same time as TNA, more people did watch TNA, by ROH was also broadcast through it's Sinclair partners. It was being broadcast locally by 85 stations, so through that you can make a guess as to the average number of viewers who watch those stations, and he came up with that number as a low-end guess, which would be in addition to the DA number of 221,000 (with two airings).

Now, TNA continues to go down the drain, but ROH has actually seen an increase in attendance and I believe they are on in more homes now. If you took the TNA decline as an industry standard, then it would be fair to assume that ROH is watched by, like, 30,000 people. But I don't think there is sufficient reason to suspect that is the case. I imagine that ROH is probably is watched, in the United States, by probably as many people that watched it in 2015. I mean, television generally goes down, but they have more channels now. But you can also watch it on apps and on their website (I believe).

But yeah, ROH also have deals in India and Portugal, so they have international stuff on the go too. I'd wager a guess and suggest that more than 100,000 people still watch them.
