how exactly is it that you output data retrieved from a count()
implementation?

The same way you retrieve data from any other query - SQL functions like
count() or sum() return data in the same fashion as normal, non-computed data.

As an example:
$foo = mysql_query(select count(*) from table);
echo Number of records in table:  . mysql_result($foo, 0);

Alias the count()

$query = select count(fld_gender) s sumField from tbl_survey;
$result = mysql_query( $query, $dbConnection );
$aRow = mysql_fetch_array( $result );
print( $aRow[sumField] );
