You can use ls -i (or ls -li) to report the inodes used by file.

To find inode usage by user, you could enable quotas on the filesystem
in question and use "repquota".  There's a lot of good documentation
on enabling quotas on the internet, but here's a quick run-through
(test on a non-production system and make sure no one's using the
partition at the time with "fuser"):

Edit /etc/fstab and add "usrquota" to the mount options for the
partition in question.

Remount the partition without unmounting it with "mount -o remount
/[mount point]"

"touch /[mount point]/aquota.user" to create a place for the quota db.

Run "quotacheck" to initialize the quota db (will return an error that
can be ignored).

Use "edquota -u [user]" to assign quotas to users.

Use "repquota" to see who's using all the inodes.
