In the Translate Toolkit there is a program, pocount, that provides
several counts of pofiles (and other types of files). You can install
the Translate Toolkit for this purpose. In Pootle, the same information
is also available (the default statistical view in Pootle is to show
word counts, not string counts).

More information on pocount is here:
http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/toolkit/pocount

It can also output to a CSV file.

Here is some example output from the program when counting two files:

gnome-control-center.HEAD.af.po
