Here's a thought:

Too bad numpy doesn't have a 24 bit integer, but you could tack a 0
on, making your image 32 bit, then use histogram2d to count the
colors.

something like (untested):

# create the 32 bit image
32bit_im = np.zeros((w, h), dtype = np.uint32)
view = 32bit_im.view(dtype = np.uint8).reshape((w,h,4))
view[:,:,:3] = im

# histogram it:
bins = # this is the trick -- setting your bins right
           # remember that histrogram is designed for floats, so
you're bin boundaries shold be between the inteer values you want.

colors = np.histogram(32bit_im, bins=bins)



NOTE: the image processing scikit may well have somethign already --
histogramming an image is a common process.
