There are several approaches to this concern.

A) Do two actions in one active link.

Change Field --> refresh table
Set Field --> stuff $LASTCOUNT$ into a temp field.

Or...

B) Do two active links separated by one execution order:

AL1 : Execution order 10
Change Field --> refresh table
AL2 : Execution order 11
 Run IF: Test based on $LASTCOUNT$
 OR
Set Field --> stuff $LASTCOUNT$ into a temp field.

Or... (for the real paranoid)

C) Use an Active Link guide to make sure no one accidentally slips in
another active link at the second execution order or mucks with the
temp field value. (Can be used in combination with either of the above
design patterns.)

It seems to me that $LASTCOUNT$ could be risky; other workflow could
execute a search, disturbing your count from a TF refresh before you test
it.  Manageable, but you'd need to be extra careful.
