literally 
  adv 
1 in a literal manner 
2 (intensifier) 
there were literally thousands of people  
The use of literally as an intensifier is common, esp. in informal contexts. In some cases, it provides emphasis without adding to the meaning: the house was literally only five minutes walk away. Often, however, its use results in absurdity: the news was literally an eye-opener to me. It is therefore best avoided in formal contexts
