Author Book Count Plug-in

Easy. The Author Book Count plug-in does that.

The ABC plugin updates a new custom column for the total number of books written by each author. This is done for every book in your library. It provides functionality that standard Calibre does not provide, specifically the ability to search using queries constructed with integers for an integer custom column. Example: ((#abc_numeric:">6") and (#abc_numeric:"<47")). Also, its normal ABC column in the Tag Browser has full Tag Browser functionality based specifically on ABC.

Also see: "Author Book Count Hierarchy", a plugin designed for perusing complex Co-Author relationships, not just ABC counts.
