This system variable tells you on which page of the diary/output file the incoming macro token is.

 

Some examples of it usage.

 

Letting you create your own page numbering scheme.

//display page numbers using Roman numerals
sResult = IntToRoman(n_OutputPage)

Handling macros and their actions differently depending on the page being left or right sided.

if IsOdd(n_OutputPage)
   // right-side page processing
else
   // left-side page processing
endif

Note that this includes all pages of the output file, even if you inserted blank pages at the front.
