We use X-ray and optical microlensing measurements to study the shape of the dark matter density profile in the lens galaxies and the size of the (soft) X-ray emission region. We show that single epoch X-ray microlensing is sensitive to the source size. Our results, in good agreement with previous estimates, show that the size of the X-ray emission region scales roughly linearly with the black hole mass, with a half light radius of $R_{1/2}simeq(24pm14) r_g$ where $r_g=GM_{BH}/c^2$. This corresponds to a size of $log(R_{1/2}/cm)=15.6^{+0.3}_{-0.3}$ or $sim$ 1 light day for a black hole mass of $M_{BH}=10^9 M_sun$. We simultaneously estimated the fraction of the local surface mass density in stars, finding that the stellar mass fraction is $alpha=0.20pm0.05$ at an average radius of $sim 1.9 R_{e}$, where $R_e$ is the effective radius of the lens. This stellar mass fraction is insensitive to the X-ray source size and in excellent agreement with our earlier results based on optical data. By combining X-ray and optical microlensing data, we can divide this larger sample into two radial bins. We find that the surface mass density in the form of stars is $alpha=0.31pm0.15$ and $alpha=0.13pm0.05$ at $(1.3pm0.3) R_{e}$ and $(2.3pm0.3) R_{e}$, respectively, in good agreement with expectations and some previous results.
