You might try using xerox~ for this if you have a pretty clean signal.

Accuracy will depend on sampling rate.

I've had some good results using pitch~ but it also has crashed Max on a number of occasions (so perhaps the results aren't so good!). That said, when it worked it was right on.

There's also yin~ (?) tho I haven't tried it, and I think it costs. Still, if it's good I'm sure it's worth the (probably small) amount.

Frequency counter for sine waves, use the fiddle~ object?
