AutoCADWEB does not have a COUNT command option. Or much of any core commands from desktop AutoCAD to automate counting either. Sorry.

I've not tested it, but you might be able to run a LISP that does counting, lots out there on the web if you wish to search for them.

I had a similar question when I first started using AutoCAD web. Counting items isn't as straightforward as in the full AutoCAD version, but you can still manage it. You can try selecting the items manually to see the count in the properties or use a simple workaround by copying the items to a desktop version if that's an option. It’s not as seamless as in AutoCAD, but it gets the job done!

E.g. the SelectSimilar tool for AutoCAD web app will display the number of selected (similar) objects. See:
