【2】estimate at/to be
* "at" is a preposition.
* prepositions must be followed by nouns.
* "xxx number of years old" is not a noun.
The -ing form of a verb can be used as a noun (e.g., running is her favorite sport), but it is often awkward, particularly when used with a possessive, as in this case.
