Count cells colored by conditional format

[wmbb]

I have a rule (conditional format) applying a format to certain cells (fill color is red, color code = 255).
All other cells are white (interior.color = 16777215).
I want to count the red cells but the interior.color code of the formatted cells is also 16777215 instead of 255 !!!
How can I count the cells formatted with the conditional format since the color code seems to stay the same as the not formatted cells ?

What is the condition for red?

The top of the column is a date.
If the date is Saturday or Sunday the whole column is red.
I would like to count the red cells in a user selected range.

Now I'm working on a workaround and put the red cells locked.
Then I can count the locked cells in the range.
It works for this purpose but I was wondering if I could do it without the workaround.

What mint was implying was, use the same criteria used in the CF in your count function.

The workaround worked for me.
I couldn't use the same criteria because the top of the column is not necessary in the user selection.
