Nope. Not on a PC, either. Only Canon can tell you.

I don't believe it's accurate. This has been discussed many times. YMMV.

If you haven't reset the counter manually (or too many times), the various website counters should be close, but only because they're looking at the file number in the exif. They're not reading the shutter count from the firmware in the body.

Install gphoto2 and use the mentioned commands as in the link above. it worked with 7D and 5DIII. they have 1D III is list of supported cameras so I am guessing it should work. Do not have to pay like the eoscount its free.
