Pretty darn close to a 1.
Undies have their own drawer. All folded.
Socks have their own drawer. All paired up.
Bras hang in the closet. Don't laugh.
Jammies have their own drawer. All matched and folded.
However, the "fancy go to meetin'" unmentionables are shoved rather haphazardly in a bottom drawer, mixed in with jeans I'll never fit into again and a swimsuit cover-up that makes me itch.

In all, I would say I’m a 7.
When everything is put away it is all paired and folded. My sock drawer has 3 compartments (dress, work, and athletic). I have 2 underwear drawers (boxers and briefs/shirts). Swimming suits have their own drawer, and I even have another drawer only for unmatched socks (I have way more space than I can use). I would say this is a 1, but everything only gets put away about a quarter of the time. The rest of the time I’m this:
I just have a few laundry baskets for clean clothes, and when I wear them they go into a hamper, and when a basket is empty I can wash whats in the hamper.
Divorced...and moving on!

I am about an 8. Everything is folded but kind of just put in the drawer wherever.
My dd? 
She's a 100. If the folded item makes it to a drawer that in itself is a major victory. Other notable items found in her drawer might be pens, science notes, an empty water bottle, and maybe a cat. At this point it would be easier to torch her room rather than organize it.

10.
It's a massacre.
And yet I do fold my panties.

I'm a five. Socks are matched and separated from undies & bras. Undies are folded and start out in a neat pile, but end up not in a pile.
I hang camis because I don't have room for them.
PJs are folded and have their own space.

When one door closes, another door opens. It's the journey through the hallway that sucks.

I am about a 3.5. I have four drawers. One has bras and undies, divider, but no folding. Drawer 2 is socks, dividided by athletic, work, and knee, but no mating. Drawer 3 is tights and because I am old, slips and spanx. Drawer 4 has swimsuits and "other".

What number is it when they live in your laundry basket until you need them?

Depends how my mum leaves them after she's come over to do my washing....
I did the washing myself yesterday. Currently my socks and undies are spread across a number of radiators. T-shirts are hung over the dining room chairs.
After that they should hopefully all make it into the same draw. 10.5

A ten. Definitely a ten. I just don't see the point in folding underwear.

That's a really unfair qualifier.

Start out a 1 after I do the laundry. Ends up at a 10 the very next day, until the next laundry day.

I'm a 4 or 5. I'm still on a college kids budget and have two rubbermaid chests of drawers that I use for nightstands. I use one of them for my underwear, socks, bras and swimsuits and each gets it's own drawer. I don't fold or match any of these but I will frequently go through and purge to clean them out.
When I help SO with his laundry I fold his boxer briefs out of habit (they resemble shorts) and get weird looks. But he is also the type that is too lazy to fold anything and hangs pretty much everything.

10 here. Folding undeies is like tits on a bull - totally pointless.
I have water quantity issues - I can go 2 months easy without doing laundry. And sometimes I go that long, even if I have lots of water.

4; socks are matched and in their own location, swimming suits are also matched (if tankini type suits) and folded in their own location, and undies are just thrown into the drawer in their location.

Ummmm I'm a 1.... I can't stand messy drawers...
Completely normal. I understand that is one of the basic drives behind potty training.
Call my psychic, but somehow I KNEW where this was going when I saw the name of the poster!
I'm anywhere from 3 to 10 depending on how much time I have to get out the door. Everything starts out neatly folded, but must share a drawer in a storage container since xpos wanted the bedroom furniture, and I can't decide on replacing it until I decide what I want to be when I grow up! The drawers are deep and narrow, so I have to dig deep sometimes to get what I want from each pile. If I have time, it gets done neatly. Otherwise, everything goes wherever. The next laundry day, it gets straightened again when things get put away.
Finding what life could have been....... Why didn't I see it?
