$threads= $vbulletin->db->query_read("SELECT thread.*
    FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "thread AS thread
    WHERE threadid IN (" . $threadids . ")
");

while ($thread = $db->fetch_array($threads))
{
    $replycounts[$thread['threadid']] = $thread['replycount'];
} 


Now you can pass the $replycounts array to your template, and then display them from your template with:

{vb:raw replycounts.674}
{vb:raw replycounts.4563}
{vb:raw replycounts.4895}
{vb:raw replycounts.7894}

etc.

Does this make sense?

No sense but its cool!

I need to test this on my page and will let you know if it works.

--------------- Added [DATE]1498322555[/DATE] at [TIME]1498322555[/TIME] ---------------

Checked on my page and it worked.

Thanks MarkFL!
