@jeffpan What's 'PV'?
Xen Paravirtualization?
Page Views?
How about running an Apache benchmark script or something similar?
If you mean Page Views, that really depends on the CPU, the amount of the CPU cores, your software configuration and which software you are running. So without details we cannot answer your question, sorry.
But be sure in the most cases, it's harder to get the amount of visitors that let crash your server than optimize it
However, a good way to test how many page views your server could handle is "ab" from the apache2-utils. Benchmark some seconds and calculate it over a day. (But always know, the CPU is shared, so the hoster will hate you if you would need the full CPU the whole time)
Ah yes, I forgot the ab benchmark,
@Amfy, the cpu info is below:

Thank you.
@jeffpan:
Thanks for providing the info. If you would have this CPU core dedicated I would say you can expect about 9 req/s with wordpress and when you install xcache, you can expect about 25 req/s.
Of course there are more facts on what it depends, like which version (php, wordpress) you're running, which plugins you have installed and so on. But the best is, just test it
ab -c 50 -t 60 http://yourblog.com/
it really depends.
As the MySQL query will be killer,10k PV at most in my opinion.
depend on plugin you use, if you only use standart wp plugin (page cache installed), I think your vps can handle 1k-10k PV.
