Not really paying close attention to what you're trying to do, but...

The GROUP() and GROUP_COUNT() functions automagically take care of the 
increment and decrement cruft in a "race condition free" sort of way.

Both methods still leave a small "window of opportunity" in comparing the 
count with the threshold.
