how can I determine the number of axes that a figure has?
using get(figure,'Children') works but also gives data on non-axis children, which I don't want

Do you only want axes that are immediate children, or do you want all axes, even those that might be several objects down (such as within uipanel) ? And how about if the handles are hidden, do you want them returned or not?
Immediate children only:
findobj( get(gcf,'Children'), '-depth', 1, 'type', 'axes')
All children (including hidden) at all levels:
findall(gcf, 'type', 'axes')
