Ah it's a POP account... That number is the number of unread emails.
Sent emails may be being stored in your sent folder by your provider. Similarly emails deleted via a web client may be moved to Trash. But we can't do that when you delete an email because POP doesn't support moving emails I think. And POP doesn't sync read email status either. So when we download it we assume it's unread. There's a reason we recommend using IMAP where available - it's much better for managing email.
