I did this on my own project in the Directory for the categories.
http://www.cmsguide.info/guide/directory...

I did this using a custom template for the Auto Nav block. I have attached the file.

Look at line 204: 
$numChildren = $ni->cObj->getNumChildren();

This adds support for getting the number of child pages. Then, on line 209:
echo  '<a href="' . $ni->url . '" target="' . $ni->target . '" class="' . $ni->classes  .'">' . $ni->icon .' '. $ni->name . ($numChildren > 0  ? ' (' . $numChildren . ')' : '') . '</a>';

This is where the numbers are printed.

Note that this was done for 5.6. Hopefully this should work in 5.7.

Instead of using this for the Auto Nav block, how would this work for the Topic List block?
