The life of a coil depends on many factors including the juice you are using, type of coil and power you are running through it. Typically when the life of a coil is discussed people tend to use number of days/weeks. I'm curious to know if anyone has tacked how much juice on average they run through a coil before it needs to be replaced/rebuilt instead of length of time.

You got me curious, so here's my rough math.
When I vape my kayfun with 1.2 ohm microcoil using cotton, I change the wick and dry burn every 5 ml, and twist a new coil about every 20 ml. In neither case, do I wait for significant decrepitude but I am reacting to performance drop off. The juice varies, but is usually 50-50 with some sugar (e.g., green fairy, tangerine lemonade).

My Mt3 I get about 4 days use, running 3-4 ml a day. I also use dark sweet juice. I know that is a coil killer.
My iclear 30s I get about 6 days but run 6ml a day
I use a 70/30 pg vg ratio.
It only takes one person to start a revolution.

I use a microcoil in my KFL and the one I have in it now is 3 months old and it hasn't changed one iota.
Coil wire gauge and the device it's in matters. Coils in some clearos can be hard to reach for cleaning, as opposed to coils in a RDA where you take the cap off and there they are.
Having said that, I've had CE4s last 1000 ml of juice, but more typically I get ~ 50 ml. Cartos last the least amount of time because you can't dry burn. Micro coils in RDAs last a long time. I'd say at least 150 ml.

I have used coils up to 3 months...with routine cleanings periodically during that time. We are taking many many ml of juice. I have never tried to count the ml though.
I average A coil change about every 4 days, That's putting 20 mill of liquid through it. Thats a stock kanger coil was rebuilding my own but decided it was to time consuming for me.
