Details:

With stable versions of screen, when I have the following output from screen
-ls:

There is a screen on:
        12095.pts-2.orion       (Attached)
1 Socket in /tmp/screens/S-fdf.

screen -q -ls gives me 11 as return value (10 for socket directory, +1 for
each attachable session according to the manpage).

With recent git ( da8e87d6505fb33ed131144a33af88c6d0dc96fd and later) I get
just 10 as return value.

This is in direct contradiction to the manpage, so I assume it's a bug.

If however there was a good reason to change this, then this is just a
documentation bug.
