Default Counting how many times a word appears in a var?

I've made a small search function as of here:

if (stristr($bleh,$search_for)) {
if(preg_match('/<title>([^<]*)<\/title>/i', $bleh, $matches))
{
$name = str_replace("./","/",$name);
echo "<li><a href=$link".$name.">".$matches[1]."</a><br><br>";

}


Now this actually works fine, and gives me a page link and title of a
page, based on pages that contain the search term.

Im now trying to rationalise the code a bit more, so that the order of
the links depends on how many times that certain word appears on the
page.

Any ideas please?

My understanding is that i need to somehow count how many times the
$search_for text appears in the $bleh text, and then move onto the next
page.
