I am trying to get the number of materials on a mesh before creating a scene node from it. How would I do this?

Materials for a mesh are per meshbuffer. So number of meshbuffers is identical with the number of materials.

Thanks for the help. I actually tried to respond yesterday but I kept getting an error when I tried to log in.

Yeah, the sourceforge people are trying to improve the server and it already got a lot better again than a week ago. But it seems to be a bit of a constant fight. Probably AI companies browsing the web like crazy not making it better.
