Try this:

<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function(){
    document.body.innerHTML = 
        document.body.innerHTML.replace(/Attendees/g, "Count");
}
</script>

You need to make sure your script runs after the page has completely loaded: window.onload\

Also check out the replace documentation.
