Thanks for the tip... this bit of code seems to work:

def fs_object_count(path):
    file_count = 0
    dir_count = 0
    for root, dirs, files in os.walk(path):
       for fname in files:
          file_count += len(fname)
       for dname in dirs:
          dir_count += len(dname)
fs_object_count()
