Well, filtering to just file path occurences will clarify the "count / quantity" of files to be restored.
But for the size of all files to be restored...
...my tip would be to use these two additional switches on the bplist command:
-l -b wide list, and the date shown is the file backup date
...or:
-l -c wide list, and the date shown is the file create date
...or:
-l -u wide list, and the date shown is the file modified date
.
And so, with a "wide" listing you will also get the file size in bytes, or in K, e.g.:
101 = 101 bytes
202K = 202 KB
.
Also, look at using: -listseconds on your bplist command. You'll see what I mean when you spot the differences between using this switch, and not using this switch.
.
One nice thing about the "wide" listing is the predictable column layout, so... you can still always pull the full file specification, e.g.:
volume:\folder name\subfolder name\my file name.txt
...from about character/position/column 59 or thereabout to end of line.
HTH.
