I have done this:

    private static async Task<StreamPosition> GetEndStreamPosition(EventStoreClient client, String stream,CancellationToken cancellationToken) {

        EventStoreClient.ReadStreamResult readStreamResult = client.ReadStreamAsync(
                                                                                    Direction.Backwards,
                                                                                    stream,
                                                                                    StreamPosition.End,
                                                                                    cancellationToken: cancellationToken);

        await foreach (ResolvedEvent e in readStreamResult) {
            streamPosition = e.OriginalEventNumber;
            break;
        }

        return streamPosition;
    }

this means the latest event number is the number of total events in one stream right?

If you are using OriginalEventNumber, I think so.

Not if the stream was truncated. You need both positions of the first and last event, and the difference between them will give you the actual number of events.
