Rails - Apr 2006 - Returning Count from find_by_sql

I want to return an int from a find_by_sql call.  But when I use that 
result to compare to another count the error tells me I have an array.

MODEL:

    # Returns the number of comments in a specified post
    def self.find_count(post_id)
        find_by_sql(["SELECT COUNT(*) FROM commments WHERE post_id =
?",
                    post_id])
    end

CONTROLLER:

  def test
    @post = Post.find(@params["post_id"])
    @comment       Comment.find_next(@params["post_id"],
@params["position"])
    @count = Comment.find_count(@params["post_id"])
  end

VIEW:

line 1: <% if @comment.position < @count -%>

....

ERROR:

ActionView::TemplateError (comparison of Fixnum with Array failed) on 
line #1 of app/views/main/_test.rhtml:


Do I have a syntax error?

Use count_by_sql instead.
