To start off with five digit numbers just set
$SerialStart = '00001'
before including powertools.php.
In any case, even with the default start of '0001',
numbers can increase beyond 9999, I think.
But I may be wrong, have not tested this in a while.

I think this should be
'{$$(serialname {$$country} {$$resultspage}-)}'
as 'country' is your field name.
