Your list might be nested (lists within lists). count() only counts top-level items.
Your main dictionary contains 15 sub dictionary items
By Flatten your list, making it appear like one list.

You have to use "." notation to access sub dictionary.
.parameters

Use this
count(local!stored.parameters.IO_CURSOR)

a!flatten works for me.

count(a!flatten(local!stored.parameters.IO_CURSOR))

count() or length() could both be used here.

    Sorry , Len() is for a finding number of characters in a text, It's not used for list
