If you use Quick-AFL, i.e., if you are NOT using the SetBarsRequired() the barcount will change depending on your amount of zooming. If you need the absolute number of bars (zero based) then you should use LastValue(BarIndex(). Note that barcount starts with "1" while barindex starts with "0". Play with this code to see how it works:
Plot(C,"",1,128);
//SetBarsRequired(1000000,1000);
Title = "\n"+
" BarCount: "+(BarCount-1)+"\n"+
"Last BarIndex: "+LastValue(BarIndex())+"\n";
UnComment the SetBarsRequired() to se how things change.
