It would be nice if there was also a views count field, which just simply returns the number of results of another view.

Is that something you are willing to put in this module? I'll try to make a patch for it.

And here's a patch (only tested against Views 2 so far so might need some work).

Here's a first try for D7. Only works for default views backend (SQL).

The last submitted patch, count_subview_results.diff, failed testing.

Thanks everyone for getting this ball rolling, this is in fact an important feature.

A downside of the patches before is: It's a 5kb copy-paste-change of existing code.
This is neigher reviewable nor maintainable.

But it inspired me to create a patch that simply adds a "count" option with only a few lines.

I#M happily using this in production.
Please test & set RTBC so we can get this in.
