In case you just want the number of solutions, and you are willing to
settle for (good) numerics, you can install the optional phc package
(just do: "sage -i phc-2.3.53.p0") and then:

sage: P.<x,y,z> = QQ[]
sage: gens = [x+y+z-3,x^2+y^2+z^2-5,x^3+y^3+z^3-7]
sage: from sage.interfaces.phc import phc
sage: sol = phc.blackbox(gens,P)
sage: len(sol.solutions())

One way to check that nothing bad happened is to see if phc classified
any of the solutions as "failures":

sage:sol.classified_solution_dicts()['failure']
[]

which in this case it did not.  It is rare to see failures in a system
which actually has finitely many solutions.
