Most music I've seen simply counts the number of physical bars on the page, ignoring voltae (ie an 8-bar phrase with with two two-bar alternatives is counted as 10 (6+2+2) bars long).
However, I have seen it counted as being 8 bars long (the second alternate was ignored for bar-numbering purposes) and as 16 bars long (ie elapsed bars were counted). What's frightening is when several conventions are mixed in the same piece! which is where I've mostly seen the unusual variants.
