Does someone have a macro as an alternative for the now defunct googlefight.com?
These rudiments still seem to work, the rest perhaps a good exercise for the reader ?
Google result count.kmmacros (3.4 KB)
Or, of course, combining the click with the value reading:
const toolsButton = document.getElementById("hdtb-tls");
return (
"false" === toolsButton.getAttribute("aria-expanded") && (
toolsButton.click()
),
document.getElementById("result-stats").textContent
);
Here's the reader's input:

I have used this as a learning project. I have created a nicer HTML window. I must have broken something, because I only get the second result displayed. When I enter:

And there is also this strange ghost shadow at the right and bottom of the search window.
Timing.
Worth trying a pause until somewhere ?
@ComplexPoint, yes that did the trick. At first I inserted two Wait for Safari to load actions, but when I searched for "pigs" and "cows", the page with pigs was loaded and then nothing. I had to kill the macro. I now have two timeouts for 1.5 seconds. Yet another step taken.
These are the steps I want to take now:
BTW: While making screenshots of the macro window I had this strange experience: the window with the screenshot stayed open in the bottom right corner. I had to kill the Preview app. Items on my Desktop were hidden. The OS became unstable, I had to press the power button at the back of my iMac. Got an international warning about an error when rebooting. Performed a First aid on the disk with Disk Utility. This kind of stuff always scares the hell out of me. 
So here is the final macro:
