it means 'I realised that' or 'I already worked that out' 'I already know'... its really used as sarcasm, its a joke. If someone said 'its raining' - then someone could say 'I figured that much'

AnonymousI figured that much.
Also, I figured as much. (= I already [figured / guessed / imagined] as much as that.)

Depending how closely you want to paraphrase it, it means any of these things.

I thought so.
I made that conclusion already.
I already supposed that to be true.
It doesn't surprise me
