Neutrinos. Do I get a prize? :P
Is it more than the photons?
I've see figures quoted of about 410 photons per cc, and 336 neutrinos per cc. The neutrino background, however, is tough to measure; so these numbers rely on theory and the early universe. The predicted ratio is, I think 9/11; and that fits those numbers.

How-about a list of different kinds of particles?
