(See the best response by Marekssj3.)
Code:
mob/Magic/verb
    Fireball()
    LightingStrike()
mob/Illusion/verb
    DoubleVision()
    Reflection()
mob/verb/CountSpells()
    var/amount=count()
    usr<<"You have [amount] Spells"
mob/proc/count()//this is what I have problems with
    var/ammount=0
    for(var/mob/Magic/verb in src.verbs)
        ammount+=1//for every Magic verb you have, +1 to the ammount
    for(var/mob/Illusion/verb in src.verbs)
        ammount+=1//same for every Illusion spell
    return ammount
    //This is the whole code, it doesn't give any errors or anithing, but it just doesn't work, it always returns 0


Problem description: I want to count certain types of verbs a user has

mob/Magic/verb
    Fireball()
    Lighting()
mob/verb/Countverb()
    var/list/verb_types = typesof(/mob/Magic/verb)
    return verb_types.len

That would be another way to do the things. I tried to test for checking every verb in the mob verbs but it's only possible if you don't define the path type of the var like: 
for(var/Z in verbs)
It will return all verbs

That's an interesting code, but I think that will always return 2 right? Example: If the user only has the Fireball spell and not the lightning spell, will that return 1? or will it return 2? I'm asking because I don't see any reference to the user's verbs. I want to count the Magic verbs the user has, not how many spells there are.

I'm not sure this is the best way to do it, but here is my formula:

mob
    Login()
        ..()
        src.verbs+=/mob/Magic/verb/Fireball
//      src.verbs+=/mob/Magic/verb/LightingStrike

mob/Magic/verb
    Fireball()
    LightingStrike()
mob/Illusion/verb
    DoubleVision()
    Reflection()

mob/proc/countVerbs(var/path="/mob/Magic")
    var/counter=0
    for(var/v in src.verbs)
        if(findtext("[v]",path))
            counter++
    return counter


mob/verb/Test()
    world<<countVerbs()
