COMMENTS
a(n) > pi(n) = A000720(n).
From Chayim Lowen, Aug 05 2015: (Start)
a(n) <= pi(n) + A069623(n).
Conjecture: a(n) >= pi(A069623(n)) + pi(n) + 1.
Each term m is repeated A057820(m) times. (End)

FORMULA
Partial sums of A010055. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Nov 22 2009
a(n) = 1 + Sum_{k=1..log_2(n)} pi(floor(n^(1/k))). - Chayim Lowen, Aug 05 2015
a(n) = 1 + Sum_{k=2..n} floor(2*A001222(k)/(tau(k^2)-1)) where tau is A000005(n). - Anthony Browne, May 17 2016
EXAMPLE
There are 9 prime powers <= 12: 1=2^0, 2, 3, 4=2^2, 5, 7, 8=2^3, 9=3^2 and 11, so a(12) = 9.
