My way of counting is simple and I hope correct as well. Program count in each
ply number of moves that was used for finding better value in it. If move
generator produced 35 legal moves for given ply, but after the first 6 moves
best value was found and ply was left, 6 will be added to the counter (NPS).

Can say nothing about qsearch. I believe, I don't have it.
