As I understand the question, you don't need a window function. Aggregate functions do the job:

• count() in the lowest level (-> row_ct).
• sum() the resulting row_ct in the next level (-> total_row_ct).

SELECT row_to_json(selected_records)::text AS data
FROM  (   
   SELECT array_to_json(array_agg(row_to_json(records))) AS data
        , sum(row_ct) AS total_row_ct
   FROM (
      SELECT landing_path_id
           , sum(entrances) AS entrances
           , count(*) AS row_ct
      FROM   report_la
      WHERE  profile_id = 3777614
      GROUP  BY landing_path_id
      LIMIT  10
      ) records
   ) selected_records;

I also included landing_path_id so the resulting data makes sense.

SQL Fiddle.

Window function?

A window function (count(*) over ()) does not seem to be what you want, since you don't have unaggregated rows.
You could add to the inner subquery:

count(*) OVER ()

.. to get the count of distinct landing_path_id, which is one other possible number that might be of interest. But that doesn't seem to be what you meant by "the total number of rows from that records select".
Or you could add to the inner subquery:

sum(count(*)) OVER ()

.. to get the total count with every landing_path_id redundantly, but that would seem pointless. Just mentioning that to demonstrate it's possible to run a window function over the result of an aggregate function in a single pass. Details for that:

• How will the order of operations in this query affect my results?
• How do I get the aggregate of a window function in Postgres?
• Need separate columns that calculate percentage

Updated question

Your result, just without total_count in the records subquery. Now accounting for the LIMIT in the inner SELECT. Even though a maximum of 10 distinct landing_path_id is selected, all qualifying landing_path_id are counted.

To get both in one scan and reuse count and sum separately I introduce a CTE:

WITH cte AS (
  SELECT sum(entrances) AS entrances
       , count(*) over () AS total_count
  FROM   report_la
  WHERE  profile_id = 3777614
  GROUP  BY landing_path_id
  LIMIT  10
  )
SELECT row_to_json(selected_records)::text AS data
FROM  (   
   SELECT (SELECT total_count FROM cte LIMIT 1) AS total_count
        , array_to_json(array_agg(row_to_json(records))) AS data
   FROM  (SELECT entrances FROM cte) records
   ) selected_records;

If you don't care about the attribute name, you can have that cheaper with a subquery:

SELECT row_to_json(selected_records)::text AS data
FROM  (   
   SELECT min(total_count) AS total_count
        , array_to_json(array_agg(row_to_json(ROW(entrances)))) AS data
   FROM (
      SELECT sum(entrances) AS entrances
           , count(*) over () AS total_count  -- shouldn't show up in result
      FROM   report_la
      WHERE  profile_id = 3777614
      GROUP  BY landing_path_id
      LIMIT  1
      ) records
   ) selected_records;

You get the default attribute name f1 instead of entrances, since the ROW expression does not preserve the column name.

If you need a certain attribute name, you could cast the row to a registered type. (Ab-)using a TEMP TABLE to register my row type for the session:

CREATE TEMP TABLE rec1 (entrances bigint);

...
        , array_to_json(array_agg(row_to_json(ROW(entrances)::rec1))) AS data
...

This would be a bit faster than the CTE. Or, more verbose but without cast:

...
        , array_to_json(array_agg(row_to_json(
                   (SELECT x FROM (SELECT records.entrances) x)))) AS data
...

SQL Fiddle.

This one uses a recursive CTE. Its result is identical to the example in the question. It was a nightmare to come up with... The code includes comments to ease through its convoluted logic.

Another strategy

This one should be significantly faster than the previous one because it doesn't rely on the slow limited recursive CTE in SQL Server 2008, although it implements more or less the same strategy.

There is a WHILE loop (I couldn't devise a way to avoid it), but goes for a reduced number of iterations (the highest number of sequences (minus one) on any given contract).

It's a simple strategy, and could be used for sequences either shorter or longer than a week (replacing any occurrence of the constant 7 for any other number, and the dowBit calculated from MODULUS x of DayNo rather than DATEPART(wk)) and up to 32.

SET DATEFIRST 1 -- Make Monday weekday=1

-- Get the minimum information needed to calculate sequences

DECLARE @RangeStartFirstPass TABLE (ContractID int NOT NULL, DayNo int NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (ContractID, DayNo))

-- Calculate, from the above list, which days are not present in the previous 7

LEFT JOIN @Days pr ON (pr.ContractID = r.ContractID AND pr.DayNo BETWEEN r.DayNo-7 AND r.DayNo-1) -- Last 7 days
GROUP BY r.ContractID, r.DayNo, r.dowBit

-- Update the previous list with all days that occur right after a missing day

SELECT *

    SELECT DISTINCT ContractID, (SELECT MIN(DayNo) FROM @Days WHERE ContractID = d.ContractID AND DayNo > d.DayNo + 7) AS DayNo
