New app: MailBadger 0.1
MailBadger is a freeware plugin for mail.app that shows the number of messages in an account/category/mailbox.
I like this feature:
There are only four built-in shapes for badges right now (I'd like to add a couple more), but you can add your own too! Go crazy and add your friends' faces to display the number of messages they've sent you.

But, there's more! Check out this feature list:
Mail Badger is a plug-in for Apple's Mail.app that enhances the application's dock icon by allowing users to set up multiple "badges" that display message counts from different mailboxes or counts of messages that satisfy a wide range of conditions.
A brief summary of the features included in Mail Badger:
* Supports any number of badges, limited only by available memory and performance
* Complete control and freedom over the position and size of badges on the dock icon
* Badges can be colorized and made partially transparent
* Users can set their own custom images to be used on badges (Mail Badger comes with four built-in shapes)
* Configurable fonts and other text attributes for the number displayed on each badge
* Message counts displayed on each badge can be computed from the number of messages in a mailbox (unread, read, or total), from the number of messages that satisfy a set of conditions, or by the result of running AppleScript code
So far, very good! Give it a try and let us know what you think.
