Sort of. There's a 'statistics' section available in action=query, meta=siteinfo. See the bottom of this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=general|namespaces|statistics&format=jsonfm

There might be another way, but this is the easiest off the top of my head.

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a way to know how many pages are inside a namespace, for example how many pages are "Categories", or how many pages are "Articles"?

Thanks,
Chux
