You sound like Google's Webmaster Guidelines ... or worse, Matt or Adam spouting of on a blog to whitehat/newbies!
Seriously, though, if you are in any competitive industry, esp. the no-nos like porn, gambling, meds, then good luck getting "natural" links from other sites (read: competitors -- what else is there?).
As for the original question, I've varied this to test myself and nothing concrete, but if you're blog's home page has some PR and your posts aren't all duplicates (cookie cutter) then I'd say go for 20 or so. Then watch Google and see if/how many of the post pages end up in supplementals and tweak accordingly.
