Population count (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

census

'population count' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for census that I've seen before include "Periodical population count" , "Population survey" , "Periodic count by statisticians" , "Head-count" , "Official survey" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, the Penny Press, The Sunday Times, The Guardian, The Telegraph, the Evening Standard, The Times and The Mirror.
