The numbers represent your back size, so the smaller the numbers, the smaller your back. The letters represent your cup (boob) size. An AA is the smallest.

well, as a bra-wearing girl, I think I can answer this. The numbers (32, 34, 36 (they're all even)) refer to the measurement around your ribcage and the fullest part of your breasts. The letters (A, B, C, D, etc.) refer to how many inches your breasts stick out away from your body. A is 1 inch, B is 2, C is 3, etc. So, depending on how large your ribcage is, you could be any number A, or any number B, etc, although most bra manufacturers start at 32 and end at 38. It is very rare to find women with ribs smaller than that. It generally goes
32, 34, 36, 38 A,
32, 34, 36, 38 B,
32, 34, 36, 38 C,
32, 34, 36, 38 D,
32, 34, 36, 38 DD.
To add to the confusion, 36D bras and 34DD bras often fit the same, 36C and 34D bras do as well, 36B and 34C, and 36A and 34B. I'm not sure whether that's true in the lower sizes; it's been years since I've dealt with that.
I know AAA and AA bras mean that your breasts stick out less than an inch, but I don't recall how their ribcage sizing went. Very few stores (like Victoria's Secret) carry them, although department stores generally do. Same with D and DD bras; very hard to find. So be lucky if you're a normal size.
