BlockCount on LabeledGraph ​

The blocks: the maximal connected subgraphs with no cut vertex; an isolated vertex is a block.

On LabeledGraph

FindStat's St000553. The blocks of a component are one, plus for each cut vertex the components it leaves, less one; each vertex with an edge adds the components its deletion leaves in its own component, less one. The deleted vertex stays as an isolated one, a component of its own. The graph with no vertices gives 0.

Called as CombinatorialStat(x, "BlockCount"). The head's page has its examples.
