Thanks, I have updated the CR accordingly.

Well, we can still have an estimation by counting calls to
build_cpe(). That trivial solution will give an estimation but will
miss the directly registered CPEs (like the ones hardcoded in the
scripts).
We could also count the occurrences of "cpe:/" in the scripts...

In any case it will be difficult to get a precise number as most of
the CPEs are generated (half-)dynamically.
