Comment (by mark8barnes):

 Replying to [comment:1 nacin]:
 > We don't bother with clearing the caches here because the counts group
 is a non-persistent group. I wouldn't be surprised if we don't clean
 caches for anything using the counts group.

 I understand that, but you'll sometimes want to perform a bulk operation
 and check post counts during the operation (in my case, I was trying to
 prevent the last of a custom post type from being deleted). In that
 scenario wp_count_posts() returns incorrect data.

 (Another option would be to add a parameter to wp_count_posts() to
 optionally ignore the cache.)
