   Try this:

   http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-dbmanager/

   If it is just the count field in your databse and you have version 2.7 you can try this Query to update your category counts

   UPDATE wp_term_taxonomy
   SET wp_term_taxonomy.count =
   (SELECT count(wp_term_relationships.term_taxonomy_id)
   FROM wp_term_relationships, wp_posts
   WHERE wp_term_relationships.term_taxonomy_id = wp_term_taxonomy.term_taxonomy_id
   AND wp_term_relationships.object_id = wp_posts.ID
   AND wp_posts.post_type = 'post')
