On NetBSD you can show the basic smart status values with 'atactl wd0 smart status', and you can install smartmontools from pkgsrc to add smartctl for more options.
Oh, atactl seems to be the NetBSD equivalent of hdparm. This disables power management and thus stops increasing Load_Cycle_Count:

atactl wd0 apm set 253

Do you mean "Device power cycle count"? Is it increasing more often than once per power cycle? Do you have any ideas on what is triggering the increases?
No,
Code:
# smartctl -a /dev/rwd0d  | grep Load_Cycle_Count
193 Load_Cycle_Count        0x0032   100   100   000    Old_age   Always       -       3683
