rdf_db:rdf_estimate_complexity/4

rdf_estimate_complexity(?Subject, ?Predicate, ?Object, -Complexity): Return the number of alternatives as indicated by the database internal hashed indexing. This is a rough measure for the number of alternatives we can expect for an rdf_has/3 call using the given three arguments. When called with three variables, the total number of triples is returned. This estimate is used in query optimisation. See also rdf_predicate_property/2 and rdf_statistics/1 for additional information to help optimizers.
