If all the numbers are 0 or 1, you can Map Total:

list = {{0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
     0}, {0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1}, {1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
     0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
     0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0,
     0}};
Total /@ list

{0, 0, 2, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1}

The more general situation can be reduced to that using Unitize:

list = RandomInteger[{-1, 1}, {10, 10}]

{{-1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, -1, 1}, {0, 1, 0, 1, 1, -1, -1,
   0, -1, -1}, {-1, 0, 1, 0, 1, -1, -1, -1, 0, 0}, {1, 0, 0, 1, 0,
   0, -1, 1, 1, -1}, {0, 1, 0, 1, -1, -1, -1, 1, 0, 0}, {1, 1, 1, 0, 1,
    1, -1, 0, -1, 0}, {0, -1, 1, 0, 1, 1, -1, -1, 0, -1}, {1, 0, 1, 0,
   0, -1, 0, 1, -1, 1}, {-1, -1, 0, -1, -1, 0, 0, 1, 1, -1}, {0, -1, 1,
    0, 0, 1, -1, -1, 1, -1}}

Total /@ Unitize@list

{5, 7, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 6, 7, 7}

I suspect this is faster than using Count.

This counts non-zeroes by columns:

Total@Unitize@list

{6, 6, 6, 5, 6, 7, 7, 7, 7, 7}
