Here's a neat study that shows how accumulated walking throughout the day is a key for women in maintaining their weight. Average steps per day was inversely correlated with all the major body composition variables, such as percent body fat, waist-to-hip ratio, etc. As far as a threshold, women who averaged over 10,000 steps a day were in the normal weight range.
