A number has appeared on the top right corner of my iphoto icon, anyone know what that means? I checked for updates, but there are none.

A number in the application icon usually means an event notification. Do you have subscribed to a shared Photo Stream? Then someone may have added a comment to one of the images or added images to the stream.

See this support article:
iCloud: Using and troubleshooting Shared Photo Streams

To unsubscribe: see Subscribe to shared photo streams

If you want to unsubscribe from a shared photo stream, all you have to do is delete it.
WARNING: When you unsubscribe from a shared photo stream, the photos contained in the shared stream are immediately deleted from all your devices. If you want to keep some of the photos, you should import them into your iPhoto library first.
In the Source list, select Photo Stream.
Select the photo stream you want to unsubscribe from, and press Command-Delete.
