Solutions depend how big is your data. Overpass count function might be the solution if just a one shot calculation. You would have a query for each type.
If you want to use the power of SQL databases, Sqlite is a «light solution», coupled with the DBeaver database tool.https://dbeaver.io/ I used to parse OSM xml with a Python script, but PostgreSQL + PosGIS offers more long term development options like for the Quality analysis I did on Building geometries (https://opendatalabrdc.github.io/Blog/index.html#!Database_Quality_Analysis_Tasking_Manager.md). Osmosis (Osm2Pgsql schema) takes care to import OSM/Xml directly in a PostGIS database. From there, quite easy to count, filter, analyze data.

I used to use VB not for its power but for its development interface. So much easier than using assembler which I started with many years ago. Apparently I need a datatable to sort a couple of columns, fine but all the documentation is for C#. It still has the nice development interface but there are differences. I know exactly what I want to do but finding the correct syntax makes me feel if you know Perl and it can do the job stay with it.

I know Perl isn't what people use these days but just to show that it really isn't rocket science (and doesn't require elaborate routing engines for that scale) I've made a modified version of the Perl script and checked it into the SVN directory. That script will take a .osm data file as input and generate a schematic map like http://www.remote.org/frederik/tmp/ipswich-busstops.png (which depicts Ipswich), where nodes are coloured according to their distance from the nearest bus stop (in this picture, 500 Mercator metres or more means something gets red).
