You only need to include the appropriate DLL/so files, you don't need to 
install anything to the user's system if you don't want. The size 
depends on which OpenAL implementation you're using:

Creative's DLLs are a touch under 350KB (the OpenAL32.dll router is 
84KB, while the actual wrap_oal.dll driver is 256KB).

OpenAL Soft's Release-build DLL/so is a bit over 400KB (this can vary a 
little bit depending on what backends are enabled).

Hope that helps. :)
