Assuming you don't count more than once things with the same id, start, and 
finish:

SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT (s1.event_id||s1.start||s1.finish))
FROM sched s1, sched s2
WHERE s1.date = s2.date AND s1.start >= s2.start
  AND s2.finish <= s2.finish AND NOT s1.ctid = s2.ctid

Add "AND s1.date = $date" as needed.
