See A257009 for the definition of the alternant of a sequence. The number of sequences of length 1 with given alternant value n is 1, while the number of sequences of length 2 with given alternant value n is d(n), the number of divisors of n (see A000005).
There are infinitely many sequences of length 3 and alternant equal to 2. It is for this reason that the offset is 3.

Examples

			For n=6, the a(6) = 4 sequences with alternant 6 are (1,1,3), (1,3,2), (2,3,1), (3,1,1)

Formula

a(n) = Sum_{b=1..n-1} (Dbm (b,b^2+nb+1)-2), where Dbm(b,m) is the number of positive divisors of m that are congruent to 1 modulo b. - Barry R. Smith, Jan 24 2016
