How can I get all the players in the server and create a label showing how many there are.

getPlayerCount

getPlayerCount 
textCreateTextItem 

or use triggerServerEvent to get the player count and display it on client-side

I dont understand, how would I do it so it displays on client-side like on a label.

Use this code client only.. you can see no. of players in bottom left of screen in ur server.

local screenWidth, screenHeight = guiGetScreenSize ( ) -- Get the screen resolution (width and height) 
  
  
function createText ( ) 
local count = getPlayerCount() 
    dxDrawText ( count, 44, screenHeight - 41, screenWidth, screenHeight, tocolor ( 0, 0, 0, 255 ), 1.02, "pricedown" ) 
    -- Draw zone name text. 
    dxDrawText ( count, 44, screenHeight - 43, screenWidth, screenHeight, tocolor ( 255, 255, 255, 255 ), 1, "pricedown" )  
end 
  
function HandleTheRendering ( ) 
    addEventHandler ( "onClientRender", root, createText ) -- keep the text visible with onClientRender. 
end 
  
addEventHandler ( "onClientResourceStart", resourceRoot, HandleTheRendering ) 
  
local originalGetPlayerCount = getPlayerCount -- Store the original getPlayerCount function to a variable 
  
function getPlayerCount() 
    -- If originalGetPlayerCount is defined, that means that this function is executed serverside. 
    -- The next line returns the result of the original function if it's defined. If not, it counts the number of player elements (to also work clientside). 
    return originalGetPlayerCount and originalGetPlayerCount() or #getElementsByType("player") 
end 

Now change the position as you like!!

@ tuaos getPlayerCount() it's a server side function.

use #getElementsByType("player") works the same as this function and works client side.

You can use it in client side with the getPlayerCount function..
