Counting categories with at most $n$ morphisms There are a number of results which count the number of possible algebraic structures on a set of $n$ elements. Notable previous MO questions are for example here and here. The analogous question for finite categories does not seem to enjoy the same attention as other algebraic structures. The only source I could find was the following OEIS entry. Simply put the first question is as follows:

How many categories with at most $n$ morphisms are there up to isomorphism? Up to equivalence?

Comparing with the analogous OEIS entry for monoids, we see that for small $n$, "almost all" categories are monoids.

In general, under some appropriate weighting scheme (which?), are almost all categories monoids, in the sense that the quotient $$\frac{\text{Number of monoids with at most }n \text{ elements}}{\text{Number of categories with at most }n \text{ morphisms}}\rightarrow 1$$ as $n\rightarrow \infty$ ?

Tom Leinster asks a similar question about groups on the $n$-category Café.

This doesn't directly answer your question, but you may be interested to know that the conjecture is true in the infinite case. In fact, for every infinite $\kappa$ there are $2^\kappa$ categories with $\leq\kappa$ morphisms, up to equivalence or isomorphism, $2^\kappa$ of which are monoids. Of course, in the infinite case, it's more general to ask how many categories there are with $<\kappa$ morphisms rather than $\leq \kappa$ morphisms, but I think this question is more complicated.
On the one hand, $2^\kappa$ is an obvious upper bound on the number of categories with $\leq \kappa$ morphisms: since composition is a partial binary operation on the set of morphisms, there are at most $\sum_{\lambda \leq \kappa} 2^{\lambda \times \lambda \times \lambda} \leq \kappa 2^\kappa = 2^\kappa$ categories with $\leq \kappa$ morphisms. 
On the other hand, it's easy to find $\kappa$-many pairwise-inequivalent connected categories with $\leq\kappa$ morphisms: for instance, it suffices to consider the oridnals $<\kappa$. By taking disjoint unions of these, we get $2^\kappa$ pairwise-inequivalent categories with $\leq \kappa$ morphisms.
We can tweak this construction to get $2^\kappa$ pairwise-inequivalent monoids. For each $S\subseteq \kappa$, we can adjoin a bottom element to $\coprod_{\lambda \in S} \lambda$ to get a semilattice $(\coprod_{\lambda \in S} \lambda)_{\bot}$, and then consider the corresponding monoid under $\vee$. We obtain $2^\kappa$ monoids this way by taking different $S$, and they are still pairwise nonisomorphic as monoids, because a monoid isomoprhism entails a semilattice isomorphism, which entails an isomorphism of the original disjoint-union categories, which are clearly pairwise inequivalent.
