What are the next two numbersin the following sequence ?

1, 11, 31, 4113, 612314, ? , ?

(Explain how you arrived at your result).

this is like the 1, 11, 21, 1211, ... problem only with more of a total overall feeling about it, next two would be 8112332416, 11132113342618
just count the number of times any digit appears and place them in a sequence. 8 1's, 1 2, 3 3's,..... and so on counting the total for all times in the sequence. I don't know what you would do if you reached 1,432 1's.
