UPDATE:

Using the Terminal and starting at the root using

cd /

I was able to get file counts for all major directories using

sudo find "<directory_name>/" | wc -l from the Terminal. The results are:

Users: 28200
Applications: 89953
Library: 88184
System: 88072
bin: 38
usr: 21662
private: 319322

That adds up to over 600K files. I'm going to repeat this over the next week and see where the big change is.

One step closer. The bulk of the files in private are in private/var/log

Football time will chase this down Monday.
