I have been pretty frustrated with the inconsistencies of AR's #count 
method. In my humble opinion, the count method should always return an 
integer. The "grouped count" functionality is powerful but should not be 
lumped in with the main #count method. This is further seen by the 
inconsistency on the #size method where in the result is either the result 
of #count if unloaded or #length of the results when loaded. I plan as 
proposing this as a PR, but thought to first start it as a discussion in 
the google group. Please share your opinions on my proposal.

Cheers,
