Do you mean the count of rows in a table / index ?

   SELECT count(*) FROM MyTable

There's no easy fast way to do this because SQLite doesn't keep that number handy anywhere.  It stores the entries in a tree and it would have to manually count the leaves of the tree.

Or do you mean the count of columns in a table / index ?

    SELECT * FROM MyTable LIMIT 1

and count the number of columns returned.  Or in C

    sqlite3_column_count()
