OK thanks Dirk,
For future readers, in the end I just counted the lines in the queue
"index" file.
This is my setup I use to display mail counts on my stumpwm mode-line
;; mu4e
(defun mail-new-status ()
"Print number of new mails."
(string-trim '(#\Newline)
(run-shell-command "mu find flag:new
--muhome='~/shoebox/system/mu' | wc -l" t)))
(defun mail-queue-status ()
"Print number of queued mails."
(string-trim '(#\Newline)
(run-shell-command "wc -l <
~/shoebox/system/mail/queue/index" t)))
And then...
(setq *screen-mode-line-format* (list "[%n] %W ^> %N | %B | "
'(:eval (git-status))" | "
'(:eval (dropbox-status))" | "
'(:eval (mail-new-status))" : "
'(:eval (mail-queue-status))" | "
'(:eval (run-shell-command "date '+%R %F
%a'|tr -d [:cntrl:]" t))" "))
