For internal representation  floating point is used, so
you can use as many bits as you like.
But the spec says you should use at least 16 Bit.

Here a fragment of decoder_example.c shipped  with libvorbis:

----------- snip ----------
       **pcm is a multichannel float vector.  In stereo, for
        example, pcm[0] is left, and pcm[1] is right.  samples is
        the size of each channel.  Convert the float values
        (-1.<=range<=1.) to whatever PCM format and write it out */

        while((samples=vorbis_synthesis_pcmout(&vd,&pcm))>0){
