I am unable to find the proper mysql function but am trying to find the maximum number of a times a single record appears within a database relative to all other records.

For example:

```
  ID   |  ....
================
   1   |  ....
   2   |  ....
   2   |  ....
   2   |  ....
   3   |  ....
   3   |  ....

```

the ideal return for what query i am trying to achieve is 3 (the count of 1 is 1, count of 2 is 3, count of 3 is 2 so return maximum count of ANY id).
