Well I know the distance between pixels is diffrent from monitor to monitor.

Like this monitor I'm on now has a distance of .25MM between pixels. Most monitors are .27 or .28.

Over a distance and multiplied, that size will increase.

I can also have 800x600 on a 15" monitor... but I can also have 800x600 on a 21" monitor as well.

Maybe it's beyond what I know about resolution and what not... but if I have to take a stab at it... I'll say the question is unanswerable.
