Metadata API with the following solution.

Login to Workbench.
Go to 'Migration | Retrieve'
Upload package.xml below
Unzip output and count number of labels by <fullname>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Package xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata">
    <types>
        <members>*</members>
        <name>CustomLabel</name>
    </types>
    <version>37.0</version>
</Package>

To do that in Apex, you may get more details in the shared link. By deploying to your org, there's a demo page that does so.

Instead of manual counting, you can use this tool to count the <fullname> nodes. – Saroj Bera Jan 05 '17 at 09:46

You can use Metadata API. Take a look at Andrew Fawcett's Apex Wrapper Salesforce Metadata API.

With the API you can query the CustomLabels metadata type to get the information you are looking for.

Easiest way is probably Workbench>Info>Metadata Types & Components>CustomLabel and check the number
