    # create table y (i int, d int);
    # insert into y values (1, 1), (1, 2), (2, 1);
    # select *, (select count(*) from (select count(y.i), y.d from y group by y.d) _) as foo
      from (select count(y.i), y.d from y group by y.d) _ ;
    
     count | d | foo

         1 | 2 |   2
         2 | 1 |   2

By the way great example how unwieldy SQL is. A bit better with CTE:

    # with bar as (select count(y.i), y.d from y group by y.d)
      select *, (select count(*) from bar) as bar from foo;

Nice! Should be easy to do max instead of count. Then top instead of max. Then top3 breaks the model.

[sergeykish]

Yes, should be max(count). I've lost you with top3.

    # select * from
      (select count from (select count(y.i), y.d from y group by y.d) _ limit 2) b,
      (select count(y.i), y.d from y group by y.d) a;
     count | count | d 
    -------+-------+---
         1 |     1 | 2
         2 |     1 | 2
         1 |     2 | 1
         2 |     2 | 1
    (4 rows)

top - max value in the group

top3 - max 3 values in the group
