Apologies if this is not a very 'githuby' question but I dont know where else to ask...

I am just wondering if this could be used to count the number of people walking past the webcam?

Any tips or ideas would be super appreciated

That depends a bit on exactly the setup you have in mind, but I think it generally would be very hard to use headtrackr for counting people without modifying the code significantly. I can't think of any library made for that specific problem, so you might have to make something from scratch.
