Hello Tasher.

This is an incoming feature that is almost ready to be released, is is named "Canned Scripted Fields" and as I said, it will be out shortly as an out of the box script. However, if you are in a hurry here is a custom script,  Steven Cheesley kindly helped customising the initial script so that it would work in a custom scripted field. 

Here is the code:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.history.ChangeItemBean

def changeHistoryManager = ComponentAccessor.getChangeHistoryManager()

def status = "In Progress"

def count = 0
// ::.. Check the state changes that have occurred ..::
def changeItems = changeHistoryManager.getChangeItemsForField(issue, "status")
changeItems.each { ChangeItemBean item ->
    // Do all the froms and then get the current state and add it to the count
    if (item.fromString in status) 
     count++
}

//::.. Check the current state ..::
if (issue.getStatus().name in status) 
 count++
return count ? count as Integer : null
    

Here is the custom field config, which is relatively simple:

And as you can see in these pictures, it works:

Hope this helped, good luck!
