I am helping another guy with his chess engine, and I wanted to be able to analyze exactly what is going on. I don't have those counts in mine, and I thought it would be faster to just get the numbers than to implement it in mine and then in his. At some point, I think I will add it, since it is nice for debugging the move generator. He has a wonderful move generator (in fact, it is very similar to mine, and I never showed it to anyone.) After I figured out what he was doing, I was pretty surprised, since nobody else does it in the same way. I think probably both of us got our original ideas from James Swafford's site, and so the similarities are somewhat natural. But certain features he has added are something I thought that only I had considered. I have a few more additional features, which I am trying to talk him into adding to his engine.
