I'm not sure if this first line is needed, puts null into sizeloopcount.

[set sizeloopcount][/set]
   [loop arg=[item-field size]]
					[perl arg=scratch interpolate=1]
					$Safe{'scratch'}{'sizeloopcount'} ++;
					return '';
				[/perl]
   [/loop]
There are [sizeloopcount] sizes available.

I'm not sure I have the syntax for increment on sizeloopcount correct, your
results may vary.
