Is there a property to get all subitems/subfolders from a SPListItem?

Question
I need to find out how many subitems and subfolders a SPListItem has. The fields ItemChildCount and FolderChildCount are no solution for me, because they only count the folder/item directly beneath the ListItem. I need ALL items and folders.
Is there a way to get these numbers without iterating through the complete list?
Thanks in advance :)

Solution
Items + Folder count
Can you check out whether SPFolder.Itemcount could help to get the number of items in a list including the subfolders? - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.spfolder_members.aspx
Only Item Count
Then checking the SPListItemCollection.Count will give you the list items excluding the folders. - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.splistitemcollection_members.aspx
Difference of both might give you the number of folders in the list. I couldnt find a direct method to get all the folders and subfolders in a list.
