Well, it will return the actual recordcount... which is a number. But CF implicitly converts numeric values to boolean values. Any non-zero value is true, while any zero value is false.
So given the following code: <cfif myCFC.myMethod()>do something</cfif> ... assuming myMethod returns a numeric value, your page will output "do something" as long as the value returned is not zero.
