Noobie question.
I'm not familiar at all with working in a DAW that has a limitation (outside of cpu power) on tracks. Pro Tools Le is limited to 32 mono tracks, 16 stereo, or a combination of the two. My question is this, do busses count against that total?

Bus count is completely separate from tracks. A bus in Pro Tools is just the route audio takes to a destination. Busses in Pro Tools can be routed to Audio, AUX or instrument tracks, so to answer your question: It depends on what you are sending the bus to. If you are sending from 6 audio tracks across a bus to an aux track (to re-create the "bus" of a hardware mixer), your audio track count does not increase against the limitation, no. If it is routed to an audio track, then yes, of course.

Re: Noobie question.
Ok, so basically, aux tracks do not count against the limitation? I get it.

Re: Noobie question.
The limitations of Pro Tools LE are as follows (covered on page 30 of the 7.4 Pro Tools Reference Guide):
