1.7 miles (initial stage, open by early 2013, serving the largest and busiest terminal), and an additional 3.2 miles (second stage, open by 2020...the fate of the 2 terminals that the second stage would serve is still undecided, hence the long gap in time). So the finished product will be just about 5 miles long.
People from the other terminals and other sections of the airport (taxis, rental cars, various parking lots, etc.) can still reach the nearest light rail station via free shuttles circulating the airport.
Some renderings and animations are available here...
