If I've attacked with a Drogskol Reaver and it was unblocked - thus dealing all of his damage to the opponent, do I draw 2 cards, or do I draw 6?

You're gaining life in two instances. So two cards I'd say :)

Your answer is appreciated, but before answering please a) be sure you're correct - if you're not, go check b) you can provide a rules justification, ideally with actual rules excerpts --cdr

2 cards. Combat damage is not assigned damage point by damage point.

If the intent of the card was for you to gain (by default) 6 cards, it would be worded "Whenever you gain life, draw that many cards."

Card draw is broken up into single events - "draw X cards" is actually "draw a card" X times. That's the only thing treated specially, though - a creature with lifelink dealing 3 damage twice is just two events.
