Hi,
Thanks for the update.
When we run the below Xpath query on an another application (XMLSpy),

The Microsoft XSLT processor strips all whitespace text nodes from the
source tree
and not as part of
implementation of neither of XML nor XPath specifications.
Thanks and Regards,

First, look at the whitespace stripping options in section 3.4 of the XSLT

deselect some nodes when you count them. Perhaps
count(blah/node()[normalize-space()!=' '])
will obtain what you want.

made on the document containing the XML node snippet:
