To list the keys in the Redis data store, use the KEYS command followed by a specific pattern. Redis will search the keys for all the keys matching the specified pattern. In our example, we can use an asterisk (*) to match all the keys in the data store to get all the keys.
To get the size of a database in Redis, use the DBSIZE command. This returns the total number of keys stored in the currently selected database. The previous command returns the number of keys in the database at index 0. Another command you can use to get the database size is the info command.
The Redis KEYS command returns all the keys in the database that match a pattern (or all the keys in the key space). Similar commands for fetching all the fields stored in a hash is HGETALL and for all fetching the members of a SMEMBERS. The keys in Redis themselves are stored in a dictionary (aka a hash table).
A Redis server has 16 databases by default. You can check the actual number by running redis-cli config get databases. In interactive mode, the database number is displayed in the prompt within square braces. For example, 127.0. 0.1:6379[13] shows that the 13th database is in use.
You can issue the INFO command, which returns information and statistics about the server. See here for an example output.
As mentioned in the comments by mVChr, you can use info keyspace directly on the redis-cli.

DBSIZE returns the number of keys and it's easier to parse.
Downside: if a key has expired it may still count.

The DBSIZE command returns the number of keys

WARNING: Do not run this on a production machine.
On a Linux box:
redis-cli KEYS "*" | wc -l
Note: As mentioned in comments below, this is an O(N) operation, so on a large DB with many keys you should not use this. For smaller deployments, it should be fine.
Since Redis 2.6, lua is supported, you can get number of wildcard keys like this
eval "return #redis.call('keys', 'prefix-*')" 0
see eval command
