Tonks has never met Harry before the Advance Guard meets him in the  
kitchen. (Canon: Tonks' remarks on Harry's appearance).

This suggests that Tonks was not at Hogwarts when Harry was there.
So at the least she must be about 8 years older than Harry - her 
final Hogwarts year being at least the year before Harry enters 
school. That maker her 23 plus.
