What's the best way to count how many rows are in each table via SQL? Or is it even possible?

I'm trying something like:

select tablename, count(*) from (select tablename from pg_tables where schemaname = 'public') as test group by tablename;

But obviously this just gives a count of 1 for each table in the public schema.

Can it be done or would I have to write a function?
