Consider this script:
documentclassreport
usepackageifthen
newcommandthesissizeSHORT
begindocument
setcounterpage
%3
ifthenelse
equalthesissizeSHORT
32
hey
enddocument
Compiling this script gives the error:
! Missing number, treated as zero.
I suspect that this is due to ifthenelse not being evaluated at the time of executing setcounter. How do I solve this?

you can't use ifthenelse inside setcounter. Change the order:
documentclassreport
usepackageifthen
newcommandthesissizeSHORT
begindocument
ifthenelseequalthesissizeSHORT

enddocument
Expandable tests are possible with expl3 and etoolbox. For both you should store the reference text in a command:
documentclassreport
