Problem: I would like to show a View of posts and calculate the total number of posts with each custom field value, like the results of a survey.

Solution: There's nothing built-in to Views that will calculate the total number of posts with a specific custom field value on-the-fly, so the display you described must be built out piece by piece using Views and Views shortcodes. You could use multiple filtered Views to achieve something similar. For example:
- View of submissions filtered by custom field "Question 1", answer "Yes"
- Use the wpv-found-count shortcode to output the number of submissions.

- View of submissions filtered by custom field "Question 1", answer "No"
- Use the wpv-found-count shortcode to output the number of submissions.

- View of submissions filtered by custom field "Question 1", answer "I don't know"
- Use the wpv-found-count shortcode to output the number of submissions.

- A second View of submissions filtered by custom field "Question 1", answer "No"
- In the loop output editor, display the "reason" free-response field

...and so on for each question.
