Usually when you do a full trans service, replacing the filter, draining the convertor (if its stock), it takes around 11 quarts.

how did you loose it all.. remember the torque conveter holds a couple so if that isn't empty it won't hold 11 ish

If you simply going to top it off then I would add some so it's at the least up on the dip stick and bring it up to temp and follow the check procedure then add a little at a time until full. If you over fill it just remove the dust cover on the front of the tranny and pull the plug on the torque converter. only takes a few minutes.
