Comment (by markjaquith):

 definitely store the counts.  The way you make sure that even non-API
 updates don't totally screw your count is to use {{{COUNT()}}} on API'd
 updates.  As long as you don't do {{{count = count + 1}}}, you should be
 fine.

 We could use wp_categories I guess.  But we should probably hide them from
 being managed on Manage > Categories.  I think tags shouldn't really NEED
 management.  They're spontaneous.  If people want fancy stuff like merging
 and mass-tagging, leave that to third party solutions.
