Have you had a look at the ngettext function?

  http://docs.python.org/dev/library/gettext.html#gettext.ngettext

I think it does most of what you propose, including letting the
translators write the little code snippets that will determine if it
should be '1 file' or 'n files'.

The gettext manual has more to say here:
