The image facet API (https://images.ala.org.au/ws/facet) can be used for this, but only allows a very limited selection of facets, and the occurrence filters don't work for images. To get the image count with the same filters as other functions(taxa, filters, locations) would be a two step process:

This is a very inefficient way to get the image counts. Probably this feature would have to wait on improvements to image-service
