I find multiple cases of code like this:

a, axis = _chk_asarray(a, axis)
n = a.count(axis)

a, axis = _chk_asarray(a, axis)
n = a.count(axis=axis)

a, axis = _chk_asarray(a, axis)
n = a.count(axis)

a, axis = _chk_asarray(a, axis)
n = a.count(axis=axis).astype(float)


All of them are bugs:

_chk_asarray sometimes returns an ndarray (due to np.ma.ravel), which 
does not have a count attribute.

Sometimes count returns an int, which does not have an asfloat attribute.
