First you have to try, wether it is possible at all, to "read" the numbers from the count area:

r = selectRegion("select the count area as small as possible")
print r.text()

if you get sufficient results, the principal workflow is something like that:

countArea = .... # somehow make it the region containing the counter
maxCount = ... # the limit
count = 0
while count <= maxCount:
    count = int(countArea.text())
    wait(1) # pause a adaquate number of seconds
# now count is >maxCount
.... # your actions

Can you help with this problem?
