Just to point out that most junctions and roundabouts won't actually be members on junction relations. The relations tend to only be used for complex junctions.
I'd also point out that you'll need to keep in mind your handling of divided highways, where you'll have at least two portions of highway with oneway in differing directions. I'm sure that you'd want to count the various parts of the divided highway as just one road though. When I've done something similar in the past I've queried a copy of the data stored in the usual Postgres schema output by osm2pgsql. I was able to for points where the roads off of a roundabout intersected the roundabout. It was hardly a terribly efficient way of going about it though.

More precisely, given an OSM file of a city, I would like to find out which is the average number of roads along a junction/roundabout? Does anybody has some experience doing that? Given the OSM documentation, it seems to be, that the only way to do that is by looking for <relation>'s, right? My intuition is that if inside a given <relation> ... </relation>, a junction exists, then the rest of <way>'s inside that <relation> are the roads along that junction. Is this reasoning correct? I'm thinking of using Osmium for that purposes. Best
