I "sort of" solved this. Check out the comments.
(defvar *unread-mails*)
(setq *unread-mails* "")
(defun update-unread-mails ()
(let ((num-msgs (gnus-number-of-unseen-articles-in-group "alt.test")))
(setq *unread-mails*
(if (< 0 num-msgs) "* MAIL *" "") )))
;; I found it to be much better not to use the number.

(defun gnus-get-news-bg ()
(interactive)
(let ((ori-buffer (current-buffer)))
(gnus-start-or-show) ; basically (gnus)
(switch-to-buffer ori-buffer) )) ; can this be avoided?
(defun gnus-after-init ()
(gnus-demon-add-handler 'gnus-get-news-bg 1 t)
(gnus-demon-init) )
(add-hook 'gnus-started-hook 'gnus-after-init)
(add-hook 'gnus-get-new-news-hook 'update-unread-mails)
(add-hook 'gnus-agent-fetched-hook 'update-unread-mails)
(add-hook 'gnus-group-catchup-group-hook 'update-unread-mails)
;; One would think, there should be just one hook, to

;; *and* their unseen articles.
