Try this:

foreach ($user in (Import-Csv .\ADUsers.csv)) {
    $folder = Get-Item ((Get-ADUser $user.samaccountname -Properties HomeDirectory).HomeDirectory)
    $size = $folder.BaseName.Length
    [array]$results += New-Object -TypeName PSObject -Property @{
        sAMAccountName = $($user.samaccountname)
        HomeDirectory = $folder
        Size = $size
    }
}

$results | Export-Csv "$env:USERPROFILE\Desktop\HomeDirSizes.csv" -NoTypeInformation

Are you running this script on your Domain Controller or on your workstation? We can make either work but it would take a few tweaks.

The first script I provided should work on a Domain Controller after the ActiveDirectory module is imported into PowerShell. However, if you did want to limit the script to your workstation, try this:

foreach ($user in (Import-Csv .\ADUsers.csv)) {
    $folder = Get-Item ((([adsisearcher]"samaccountname=$($user.samaccountname)").FindOne()).Properties.homedirectory)
    $size = $folder.BaseName.Length
    [array]$results += New-Object -TypeName PSObject -Property @{
        sAMAccountName = $($user.samaccountname)
        HomeDirectory = $folder
        Size = $size
    }
}

$results | Export-Csv "$env:USERPROFILE\Desktop\HomeDirSizes.csv" -NoTypeInformation

Does it have to be powershell?

Unix has du, and Systernals created du for Windows. It's really much easier to use.

Does the account you're logged in with have permission to view the contents of each user's home directory? This works fine on my workstation.
