I wouldn't say it's super common. Of the 20-30 founders that I know well I'm the only one I'm aware of that has a nuvigil prescription. I take it because I'm a single parent of young kids and do a lot of international business; my sleep schedule is pretty screwed. I'll use it to combat a sleeping med in the AM and attempt to get back on a normal schedule.
Adderall is pretty common, but they usually take it for ADD or depression. When I see Adderall get "abused" it's usually people using it before going out drinking and not necessarily for work purposes.
