Why do you want the result in js? Are you writing a javascript macro? If so 
there's a function called "getVariable" that can get current variables for 
you. See 
$:/core/modules/macros/changecount.js for an example of usage.

I don't think it's possible to insert the resulting value inside of the 
same <$set> because 

1. You can't concatenate text that way
2. The variable isn't available until after the filter has 'run'

but I would love to learn if I was wrong.

I could see making a request for an additional <$set> output option, e.g. 
'format="the count was %s"' 

Good luck!
