Natural?/ and correct?

1. I don't know he may have invited how many guests to the party.

2. I don't know how many guests he may have invited to the party.

I heard that two sentences are grammatically correct.

Then which is more natural to hear?

One more question; If I put if or whether after 'I don't know', the sentense does not make sence?

(I don't know if/whether he may have invited how many guests to the party)

To me, only the second one is correct.

"If" or "whether" makes no sense to me in either version.
