COMMENTS
For (x, y) to be a solution to the more general equation x^2 - d^2*y^2 = n, it can be shown that n-f^2 must be divisible by 2*f*d, where f is a divisor of n not exceeding sqrt(n). Then y = (n-f^2)/(2*f*d) and x = d*y+f.

EXAMPLE
a(64)=2 because x^2 - 25*y^2 = 64 has two solutions, (X,Y) = (8,0) and (17,3).
PROG
(PARI) a(n) = sumdiv(n, f, f^2<=n && (n-f^2)%(10*f)==0)
