To close to time to leave for cook-out and fireworks show to answer substantively today, but I'll try to remember to take a look at the idea tomorrow. Unless, of course, someone throws you an answer before then.

Lua, unsurprisingly, will be required.
Ideally it should go something like this:
1) Get the number of units the player has with the function Player.GetNumUnits()
2) once you get that number, divide it by 5 using math.floor, kind of like this:
3) I think this should speak for itself:
4) Hook into GameEvents.PlayerDoTurn so it fires each turn. Done.
EDIT: SPOILER = Free code, but optimally you should learn to code it like I'm trying to
Now, for BUILDING_XTRA_DELEGATES, give it the column <ExtraLeagueVotes> set to 1, and give its buildingclass the column <NoLimit> set to true. You also may want to make the building invisible, optimally.
Also... potentially a super-OP UA.

Would this be the correct code:
<Buildings>
<Row>
<Type>BUILDING_BUILDING_EXTRA_DELEGATES</Type>
<NoLimit>true</NoLimit>
<Cost>-1</Cost>
<GoldMaintenance>-1</GoldMaintenance>
<PrereqTech>NULL</PrereqTech>
<FaithCost>-1</FaithCost>
<ExtraLeagueVotes>1</ExtraLeagueVotes>
</Row>
</Buildings>
I made sure to add the 'E' in the Lua.
EDIT I just tried it, the UB icon is gone, the civ and UU icons are switched and the only civs are my civ, Morocco, and Greece. Please help.

...you forgot to give it a buildingclass...
It, optimally, needs to be a completely new buildingclass. And <NoLimit>true</Limit> is a column for a buildingclass, not building.
Also, I'm not sure what setting maintenance cost to -1 would do but 0 makes it a free building, so that can probably be outright deleted.

Lua doesn't need VFS=true unless it's replacing a base game file (in which case it must also have the exact same name as that file), is a map script (in which case it also needs a MapScript entry), or another file references it using the include() function. In any case none of those [should] apply, so you give it an InGameUIAddin Entry. (See this thread for additional details and on how to give a file an entry)

Change "pUnit_num = pPlayer:GetNumUnits()" in the script to "pUnit_num = pPlayer:GetNumMilitaryUnits()".

Four months or so ago I couldn't lua my way out of a paper bag. With a lot of study of that reference and this reference and some guidance from forum members my latest effort is here

Logs! Logs, Aidence! Logs!

Other than that; yeah, I've never seen such a thing either. I can tell you that your icons have too large of a diameter, but I've never seen that "Civ Specific Bonus 2" thing before.

This "Civ Specific Bonus 2" happens when there is something wrong unabling the UA to properly load. It probably lies in your XML files, maybe a lack of ">" rendered the whole UA *.xml inoperative and you got that message, or you used some parameter that does not exist (like a table).
