If you load the companion CD software that came with your Solaris distro
you will also have a gfind (gnu find) command. Also obtainable from
blastwave.org and others.
Then to get a count you could do something like:
gfind . -type f -links +1 -printf '%i\n' | sort | uniq | wc -l
With the Solaris (POSIX) or gnufind find try:
find . -type f -links +1 -ls | cut -d' ' -f1 | sort | uniq | wc -l
