   I am looking for a plugin that will display in parenthesis the number of posts in a category next to the category listing in my sidebar links. Any suggestions?

   Don't need a plugin--the template tag, wp_list_categories, with the parameter show_count=1 in your theme's sidebar.php file will do that.

   Also, as of 2.2, if your theme is widgetized, the Category widget allows you to specify that the count be displayed.
