Find with Pipe
Try this
find . -type d -name somedirname -exec ksh -c 'echo -n $1" ";ls -ltr $1|wc -l' {} {} \;
This will serach for all directories from current direcotry and will give count of number (+1) of files/dirs present in that directory.
For your original question:
find . -type f -name "*.dat" -exec ksh -c 'echo -n $1" ";grep XXXX $1|wc -l ' {} {} \;
