COMMENTS
Let s denote West's stack-sorting map. Let Av_n(tau) be the set of permutations of [n] that avoid the pattern tau. The only length-3 pattern tau for which there is no known formula for |s^{-1}(Av_n(tau))| is 321.
It is known that 8.4199 <= lim_{n--> infinity} a(n)^{1/n} <= 11.6569.

EXAMPLE
Let s denote West's stack-sorting map. Among the permutations of [5], the only permutations pi for which s(pi) contains the pattern 321 are 35241, 34251, and 45231. The term a(5) = 117 counts all of the other permutations of [5].
