On a musical metronome is the metronome number indicated at the top of the weight or at the bottom?

On all metronomes I have seen, the number is indicated just above the weight, but you can double check with a watch or clock. The numbers on a metronome indicate the beats per minute, so when a metronome is set to 60 (beats per minute), then there will be a beat every second. Set your metronome so that 60 is just above the weight, and watch the seconds on a clock or watch. If there is one beat per second, then you know that it is set at 60. If the number is indicated just below the weight, then it will be obvious that the metronome is not set to 60 when you compare it's rythym to that of a clock. If this is the case, then try setting the metronome so that 60 is just below the weight. With this new setting, if there is one beat every second, then you now know that the metronome is set at 60, and the number is indicated jsut below the weight.

What do all the numbers on the metronome add up to?

That depends what kind of metronome you have - which is partially based upon how old the metronome is, and partially based on the necessary precision. Taking a standard example, my metronome consists of the numbers 40 and 42, and from then on, the multiples of 4 from 44 to 208. The sum of these numbers is 5374.
