The mistake most people make with _Tally is that there are other commands
besides queries that set it. You have to grab the value *immediately* after
a query or you might get a _Tally for some other action.

I've never seen it give a wrong value.

I go with Dan here. When I use it, I use it immediately,
typically:
<_tally value generating statement>
howmany=_tally
The assignment is before anything else, period.

This problem is reminescent of the parameters() function which
could throw one for a loop due to an OKL triggering.
