Sorry, no. A quick look at the protection log shows many more protections of articles as well as other pages; listing in the protected pages categories almost seems an exception when these are clicked on.
As well a wide range of pages are "salted" - deleted then protected to prevent recreation. Those don't appear in categories either. It looks like you'd need to do a check on actual status of mainspace pages via the toolserver to get accurate statistics.
