Is it possible to see how many posts you have in a particular section, such as Off Topic, similar to the way you can check how many posts you have in a single thread?

I doubt it, but maybe the mods have access to this kind of info:)

I think the closest you could get is going to advanced search, typing in your username, show results as posts, and selecting the sub-forum from the right. Only thing is it shows maximum 500 posts

Yep, there is a pesky 500 search results limit - I expect it is a design feature to minimize database overhead & load.
There is one way I can think of, I haven't tried it - it should work, although it will be tedious. Do an advanced search for all threads that %username% has posted in, in a set of forums, then add up the number of posts for %username% in each of the search result threads.
