I am trying to find a solution to adding up the total number of occurrences

I need to query (or do an incremental loop) thru the xml and count the
number of OK occurrences and have it total the number.  Any thoughts or
examples would be greatly appreciated.

Try
  <xsl:value-of select="count(//severity[.='OK'])"/>
Note that this can be slow, knowing more about you input XML
may allow optimizations. Note further that it wont match
<severity>ok</severity>
