Yes, the numbers seem wrong. I get the same type of result on my boards.
About the SMD pad count -- using Reports | Board Information | Report, select Layer
Information. The TopLayer pad count should be the number you want. (It matches Jeff
Stout's calculation on my board.)

Thanks for all the suggestions.
I'm sure now I'll find a way to count my SMD-Pads approximatly. Most
propably by the "calculate" way. I don't need the exact count.
Do you agree that the report reports a wrong number of Pad Paste Mask Count?
Or have I misunderstod something? I think a bug.
