Maybe not an option for you (but why not?), however, it would be much
less work evaluating XPath expressions:

  /*/library_geometries/geometry/mesh/source[id="Cube"]/float_array/@count

Or just a part of that long XPath depending on where you are in the
tree. And it could possibly be simplified, but that depends on the
structure of your XML.

For example, if source/@id really were an ID in the XML sense
(uniqueness in the document), you could also use:

  id("Cube")/float_array/@count
