Hi,
As stated in the manual (Section 29.9.25, Hbond, pg 575):
Count is the total number of interactions between solute and solvent
(note this can be greater than the total number of frames since for any
given frame more than one solvent molecule can hydrogen bond to the same
place on solute and vice versa)
So this is expected, and is a consequence of tracking solvent in a
non-specific manner. If you want to track specific water-solute
interactions you will have to explicitly specify water with explicit
donor/acceptor masks. Be warned this will greatly increase the data you
generate. Hope this helps,
-Dan
