I don't know exactly, but anime's normal frame rate is about 8 fps... it would be larger if the creator feels it suit the scenes. So it depends on the scenes.
But lately, anime is using CG more than cel pictures... maybe there's an increase in frame rates.

Technically all kinds of films are 24fps. That means for every second there are always 24 film shots.
Nevertheless, for anime, some of the cels are made to be shot for twice, or even three times under budget constraints. This would pull the frame rate practically down to 12fps or even 8fps. Usually slow scenes or those which concentrate on speech would have a low frame rate. But for fluidness, fast scenes with rapid manuever of the focus are usually produced with 24fps (exactly 24 cels drawn for each second, and each shot for only once).
Mainstream US animatation like the Disney productions, in the contrary, are always produced with 24fps.
To find out the average number of cels used in each second in the Ghibli movies, some simple maths can do:
Nausicaa = 56078/(116*60+27.05) = 8.03
Laputa = 69262/(124*60+4.22) = 9.30
Totoro = 48743/(86*60+20.14) = 9.41
Hotaru = 54660/(88*60+26.19) = 10.30
Kiki = 67317/(102*60+46.12) = 10.92
Omohide = 73719/(118*60+49.05) = 10.34
Porco = 58443/(93*60+18.19) = 10.44
Umi = 25530/(72*60) = 5.91
PomPoko = 82289/(118*60+59.01) = 11.53
Mimi = 64491/(111*60+0.12) = 9.68
OYM = 8053/(6*60+48.21) = 19.73
Mononoke = 144043/(133*60+24.22) = 18.00
Films produced after Mononoke have abandoned the traditional processes of cel animation. Colouring and animation were done through the computers.

Sorry to have responded so late! Thanks for the info.

I'm surprised--the animation looked so smooth and realistic in this movie (or maybe that was just me being used to lower framerates than what you find in Disney/Bluth films.) For heaven's sake, though, I read somewhere that the Studio Topcraft film The Last Unicorn (which I own, btw) that was made two years before Nausicaa has almost twice the frame rate average, and it is thirty minutes shorter!
