Thanks to Martin and Antoine, that was quick. 
Both solutions work fine (Antoine's is two lines though). 
Thread closed. Sven

Two line solution:
 unab myvars : name*
 local mycount=wordcount("`myvars'")

Three line solution:
 d name*, varlist
 local myvars=r(varlist)
 local mycount: list sizeof myvars
