People don't blink when they're asleep. In a 24 hour day, most(?) people sleep for eight hours, so 15,360 would be a lot closer for an entire day. Also, anyone who uses a computer blinks a lot less than normal.
The average infant only blinks once every minute or so, but adults can blink at varying frequencies between three to fifteen times per minute depending upon activity. For adults, this will produce a total of around 10,000 blinks per day.
