You absolutely can do it without COUNT. Just increment a counter value, the same way they're doing it in Redis.

Why was this downvoted? Adding 1 to any number field is just as an atomic operation as incrementation is in Redis.
Presumably it was downvoted (not by me) because it's refuting a claim I didn't make:
samstokes: I said you can't do it with COUNT()
guywithabike: You absolutely can do it without COUNT
Then we agree.
