I'd go with not using FromDigits. Instead partition the concatenated 
list of digits, with offset of 1 and length of the number of digits in 
n. Then call on the Count (the Mathematica function, not Dracula).

countValInRangeVal[n_,base_] := Module[
   {digits=IntegerDigits[n,base], alldigits},
   alldigits = Flatten[IntegerDigits[Range[n],base]];
   Count[Partition[alldigits,Length[digits],1], digits]
   ]

If you are fond of long one liners:

countValInRangeVal2[n_,base_] := Count[Partition[Flatten[
   IntegerDigits[Range[n],base]],Length[#],1],#]& [IntegerDigits[n,base]]

Other long one-liners might include

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_line_(topology)

or perhaps the final sentence of Joyce's "Ulysses".
