What a waltzer counts to (5)

I believe the answer is:

three

(Other definitions for three that I've seen before include "Prime number" , "Cardinal number" , "Number constituting a crowd?" , "Number of times N appears in this completed grid" , "There (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
