问题
I have to create a browse page like monter.com or dmoz directory. My problem is the counts for each category. What's the best practive to do a similar thing? I am using PHP/MySQL Thx!

Did you try to implement it the way that you calculate these numbers dynamically when the page loads? How do you know that it is indeed a performance issue? Calculations are pretty fast these days.
Otherwise put a counter field next to each (sub-)category. When inserting(/deleting) a new post, then you update the counter of all categories it belongs to.
As a result, when you query any category, or set of categories, you will have a counter field for each giving the exact numbers of posts the category holds.

Solr can do that with Faceted Search http://lucene.apache.org/solr/tutorial.html#Faceted+Search I'll test it now.
