Hello everyone,

Is it possible to count the number of URLs in the list?

This was very easy in the v1 API. It's not as straight forward in v2.

You could estimate the number by counting the number of prefixes and hostkey entries and subtracting those that are also in a sub chunks.

I'm not sure how accurate the count would be. You would have to post each prefix to Google and count the number of full hashes returned to get a more accurate count. This would undoubtedly be considered abuse of the API however.
