Answer 1

See here.

• Wordpress - Get number of posts AND comments by day
• Get number of posts belonging to a particular category,

Answer 2

Use the code below:

$taxonomy = "category"; // can be category, post_tag, or custom taxonomy name

// Using Term Slug
$term_slug = 'some-category';
$term = get_term_by('slug', $term_slug, $taxonomy);

// Fetch the count
echo $term->count;
