You can do it by using name attibute, class, id or just universal checkbox; If you want to count only checked number of checkbox.

By the class name :

var countChk = $('checkbox.myclassboxName:checked').length;

By name attribute :

var countByName= $('checkbox[name=myAllcheckBoxName]:checked').length;

Complete code

$('checkbox.className').blur(function() {
    //count only checked checkbox 
    $('checkbox[name=myAllcheckBoxName]:checked').length;
});
