Actually, you must use 2 commands:

  1. Use mminfo to report the exact timestamp (i prefer 'nsavetime' as it is an 
integer value and format free)

  2. Use "nsrinfo -t nsavetime client_name"

This is it, in principle. 

Now you can add/pipe the output through a command to count the lines ('wc' from 
MKStools, for example).
However, be aware that it will list more entries than necessary because of 

  - the fact that each directory also counts one entry
  - internal pointers (aka as 'connected directories', as far as i remember)

If you really want to count the filenames exclusively, add verbosity ...

  2. Use "nsrinfo -v -t nsavetime client_name"

... and grep for "file size" <>0    (of course this only works exactly as long 
as you do not have empty files)
