Is there any formula for calculating the count of prime factors of a number 'N'? I know the loose upper bound is log2(N) but is there a better upper bound? Thanks.

There is no deterministic solution as of now, but it is a very famous fact that Hardy and Ramanujan proved that "for most numbers" (in the probabilistic sense), the number of distinct prime factors of a number $$$n$$$ is $$$log(log(n))$$$.
Hardy-Ramanujan Theorem
Is there any way to find the maximum number of distinct prime factors of all the numbers in the range [1, N]?
Multiply first prime numbers while result is less than N.
