There are nothing to do with this.
Well looks like you are diagnosed with OCD. Im sorry, you have less then 100 years left.

that’s cause i keep clearing it every time, which is opening it then scrolling all the way to the bottom.
site is now literally unusable.
I found an easy solution for you. You just need the Chrome extension “AdBlock”
Right click the count balloon. Then click AdBlock > Block this ad. Adjust the slider if needed. If you click the correct element, you can block the counter but maintain access to the chat…
Result:
I used the same thing to disable the painfully annoying popups on DIY’s site…
Update: This trick breaks other notifications too…

Won’t this also block your notifications for the site though? (like PMs, mentions, etc)
Send me a PM and let’s see
Does it bother you to know mine says 100?

I got you beat… mine says 100+
So after blocking the chat counter, I still get the green PM notifications over my avatar. But unfortunately it seems the thread notifications/mentions don’t work anymore
Good catch @Smorto
My little trick is not as useful as I had originally thought. And I’m not sure how to unblock an “ad”

Is that an inspect element hack I see? 
. (I could be wrong, just a guess)
