If you can get all of the Summarize output into one field and one row, try a batch macro with a Control Parameter.

Alternatively, you can use the Append Fields Tool (or Join Tool if you use Grouping) to merge the count with the table data stream:

Then you can reference the count in the Report Text Tool (using "Available Fields" drop down:

Hope this helps and Happy Solving!
