Hi Nick.
Is the following what you want?
In[22]:=
o = {{1, 0}, {1, 1}, {2, x + x^2 + x^4}, {2, 1 + x + x^2 + x^4}, {4, x
+ x^2}, {4, 1 + x + x^2}, {4, x + x^4}, {4, 1 + x + x^4},
{4, x^2 + x^4}, {4, 1 + x^2 + x^4}, {4, x^3 + x^4}, {4, 1 + x^3 +
x^4}, {4, x + x^2 + x^3 + x^4},
{4, 1 + x + x^2 + x^3 + x^4}, {5, x + x^3}, {5, 1 + x + x^3}, {5,
x^2 + x^3}, {5, 1 + x^2 + x^3}, {5, x + x^3 + x^4},
{5, 1 + x + x^3 + x^4}, {5, x^2 + x^3 + x^4}, {5, 1 + x^2 + x^3 +
x^4}, {8, x}, {8, x^2}, {8, x^3}, {8, x^4}, {8, 1 + x},
{8, 1 + x^2}, {8, 1 + x^3}, {8, x + x^2 + x^3}, {8, 1 + x + x^2 +
x^3}, {8, 1 + x^4}};
o[[All,1]]
({#1, Count[%, #1]} & ) /@ Union[%]
Out[23]=
{1, 1, 2, 2, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, 8,
8, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8}
Out[24]=
{{1, 2}, {2, 2}, {4, 10}, {5, 8}, {8, 10}}
