Hmm, it does vary mostly because I work a lot. However I'd say at least once or twice a week, often more. Of course, sometimes I'll go a streak where I don't like this month I haven't gone out much because I've been working too much. Work/Sleep has been my life since Aug 1st.
These days, about 3-4 times a week. It's usually with a group of 3 or so friends, but it's also with just one person. We generally just hang out, get stuff to eat, make jokes, etc etc while roaming my city.
In previous years of my life, it wasn't even one time a week.
In weeks of school or work, I rarely hang out with people unless they come over on their own, because I get tired and the last thing I want are more people that I have to talk to.

When I was in college pretty much every day. When you live in the same apartment block as a lot of your friends it's difficult not to run into people.
I'm working 5 days a week for the Summer now though so I see my boyfriend twice a week and try to see my friends at least two or three times depending on who it is. We tend to all go out on Saturdays which is nice.

School Monday to Friday.
Saturaday: work to 12 am, then bother my best friend.
Sunday: Lasy day or go to friends, depends on my mood.
Thats a basicly sample of my week.

Variable. Had a few months of near-complete isolation, followed by a flurry of Going Out and Doing Activities. Can't wait to get back to college. Turns out I hate being alone.
Basically this. I kind of alternate, too: for example, I went to a massive park with loads of strangers yesterday, I'm going out with my friend today, another friend on Tuesday, to the cinema with two more on Wednesday and I'll be seeing a load of people at GCSE results day on Thursday. But I can go a very long time without going out sometimes.-Samurai- said:
I don't really have a problem with it. One of my friends does, but I'm not taking advice from someone who's trapped herself in an emotionally abusive relationship, so...
I go out enough that I have a wifebeater tan. On weekdays I go to work (outdoor construction work for 8 hours a day), and on Friday nights, and Saturday and Sunday afternoons, I go to my MMA club. I also tend to go out running at least once a week. And of course, there's the obligatory check mail/grocery shopping/go to bank errands to run.
About once a week, maybe less. Kinda hard at the moment because most of my old friendship circle has left our local town for jobs, uni or whatnot meaning that after coming back from uni there's only a few of us left.
But yeah I find getting out any less than once a fortnight has a large effect on my mental well being.
EDIT= "abotu once a week" depends on how you define "getting out"- if you mean getting out the house in general then everyday, cant stand being cooped out for more then a few hours, the "about once a week" more accurately describes going drinking and/or partying.

Once a week for PnP roleplay and at least once a week I'll hang out with someone down the pub or something. TBH though schedule wise its hard to organise as two people are married, one has a kid and I work odd hours. Ah the joy of being a grown up.
Let's see, in the last 2 weeks I went to the science museum with my friends, and went to my friends house for a BBQ. That is also all the times I've interacted with anyone bar my family outside of school this year. And I was bored at both of those, I much prefer solitude.
I have to leave the house at least three days a week to go to uni. There are a few people I usually talk to, but I wouldn't consider them friends. I prefer to sit on my own in lectures and go to the library during breaks. On non-uni days I leave the house fairly often, but never for socialising purposes. I just go out for walks, or go running with my dog, because I get fidgety if I'm cooped up indoors for too long.
So: Friends? No. Fresh air? Plenty.

I get together with friends at least 2-3 times a week, if not every day. I'm also in college, so I'm out of the house most of the day, and I go shooting with my dad on weekends that I don't work on restoring an old car.
So, I'd say that when I was in highschool, at least once a week just about every week, but much more now that I have some more disposable income and a car of my own, even if it is a crappy one.

Nowadays, to me "getting out" refers to leaving the house to go to work/do errands/shopping/school/yardwork.
The amount of time I spend hanging out with my friends has exponentially diminished over the past 3 years.
Now we only get together every month or so to catch the occasional movie, or take a long drive out to the nearest arcade (2 counties over). Otherwise, we use the internet to stay in touch. Why visit a friends house to play halo with them when you've got XBL?
Part of that has to do with a large number of my friends moving away, several of them going out of state, so getting together becomes a bit of a problem when you've got half the nation between you.
