Quantify leucine-rich repeats (LRR)

How do I determine the amount of LRR of a specific Glyma (example Glyma.18G280300), using NCBI's Conserved Domain Database (CDD) tool "https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/cdd", it has 4 LRR, 6 LRR. How do I analyze this? Are there any better tools than CDD for this purpose?

Thanks.

Yes, thank you very much. In a job I saw that only using the NCBI's CDD was able to identify that it had X LRR domains, so I thought I was using it wrongly. Thank you for the tips.

A simple Google search identifies many resources:

It is difficulty to nail down the exact number of repeats, especially if some of them are degenerate. You may want to try Pfam as well.
