it should last longer than that... but that also depends on how and where you drive. A lot of city driving can wear out a clutch quickly.. mostly highway will make it live a LONG time.. You clutch style will make a difference. The more you slip it, the shorter it's life.. Also, resting your foot (even just touching) will make it wear faster.
Personally, I hope to make it to this summer with my clutch (85000) I want to add a lightweight flywheel at the same time.. but it is not in my budget at the moment.

instead of goin for an OEM clutch, think about upgrading it. thats what i'm gonna do when i beat mine up. (hopefully not for a while since my car only has 33K miles on it)
