Tthat is the way I would do it for a table with a small number of columns, but these have several dozen so this would get tedious. Although I just realized I could output the list of column names from the pg_stat view to a file and whip up some vi find and replace to create the entire statement pretty quickly. I was just wondering if that was the only way or not.
\set my_table my_real_table_name
SELECT 'SELECT COUNT(*) AS total_rows, '||array_to_string(array(SELECT 'COUNT('||column_name::text ||') AS ' || column_name::text FROM information_schema.columns WHERE table_name=:'my_table'),E',\n') || ' FROM ' || :'my_table' || ';';
