Facebook fan page like count from a tab

How can I get the like count (new fans) of my Facebook fan page from a specific tab (application)?

Let us say my Facebook fan page has three tabs (hence three applications). How can I know how many likes was originated from each of these three tabs?

You will have to count them yourself as the "like" action is being performed for the same object (page object).
Use this method and the JavaScript SDK to detect when a user "likes" the page. 

FB.Event.subscribe('edge.create',
    function(response) {
        alert('You liked the URL: ' + response);
    }
);

Taken from here : https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/javascript/FB.Event.subscribe/

Once you detect the "like" you can post to your server and include the app_id. Store this in your database and hey-presto - per tab like counts :P
