In order to do this, you'll need to replace all "difference",
"intersection", and "merge" keywords with "union", then render.  The
resulting model won't look anything like your original model, but the
"frame level objects" count will be the number of parts in the model.

A "frame level" object is any object that is in the "top level" of the
scene; that is, not part of a difference, merge, or intersection, and that
is not a bounding or clipping object.
