In jQuery:

if($('select#something option').length > 0) {
    // There are some.
    ...

---

$(myCombo).children("option").length

---

<select id="mySelect">
    <option>1</option>
    <option>2</option>
    <option>3</option>
    <option>4</option>
</select>

Then:

alert($('#mySelect > option').size()); //4

You can use the length property like this:

alert($('#dropdown_id option').length);

Make sure to wrap your code in ready handler:

$(function(){
  alert($('#dropdown_id option').length);
});

You can also use the size() method:

$(function(){
  alert($('#dropdown_id option').size());
});
