My wlc9800 needs to send log to a server (splunk), warning level, the server administrator wants to know how many megabytes of information will be sent to the server, I have searched for documentation but I cannot find that information. Does anyone have this information that can help me?

You will not able to find that information any were in the documents. Depends on what kind of Log information you like to send to destination - and what log type ? as you mentioned warning type you need to configure the syslog and monitor because every environment warning messages are different.

WLC 9800 WLC send warning message i see 200MB per day to upto 1Gig per day depends on user base and other factors.

  - There won't be  a unique answer to that question ; it will depend on the logging parameters (severity levels) set and , for instance if you start using global ap syslogging or not. Tools like splunk will usually have flexible rotating availabilities for logs and automated purging capabilities.

Per hour?  Per day?  Per week? 

Depends on how many APs, client number, SSID, logging levels, etc.

per day, warning level, six app, I know there are many variables to consider, I just need an estimate of traffic,
