Are there any sites out there that give the reference number for kanji? I use the Kodansha Kanji Learner's course and it would save me a ton of time instead of having to look for it via stroke count.
Consider trying Yomichan. In the popup dictionary, click on the Kanji. If you scroll down, there are a bunch of reference numbers for different Kanji books and dictionaries (including Kodansha Compact Kanji Guide and Kodansha Kanji Dictionary).
