As a workaround I'm currently using a markup:

~~~~
% if at end of the line
\once \override Score.RehearsalMark.break-visibility = #end-of-line-visible
    \once \override Score.RehearsalMark.self-alignment-X = #RIGHT
    \mark \markup \small "4x"
~~~~

I couldn't find any snippet in the LSR.
Perhaps it can be added in the documentation (NR 1.4.1)?

As Trevor pointed out, this feature has been requested several times already.
[http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2010-11/msg00405.html](http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2010-11/msg00405.html)

It would be good to have an optional setting, off by default, which
causes the repeat count in a volta repeat to be printed above the
repeat bar line when no alternatives are present.  For example,

\voltaCountOn
\repeat volta 4 \{ ... \}
% no alternatives follow

would print "x4" above the bar line closing the repeat.

James suggested another way of printing this:
"""
I've never seen it done like that but seem to remember a normal volta bracket 
on the last measure of the repeated section with '1-4' on it.
"

I've seen both, but the "x4" is indeed commonly used in repetitive music \(I 
remember seeing it in Reich's Vermont Counterpoint original edition\).
