A ly-file can contain multiple books or bookparts or a mix of it.
I don't know how to cover every case, but for the case of a single
book(part) you could do:

\paper {
  #(define (page-post-process layout pages)
    (format #t "\n\tCurrent book-(part) has ~a pages" (length pages)))
}

\score { { R1 \pageBreak R } }

Cheers,
  Harm
