Probably not many at all. Sustained exercise is what leads to significant caloric expenditure.

---Addendum: Not exact, and this assumes I've done my math right (and any high school physics student could probably correct me):

Given you weigh about 200 lbs (or roughly 100 kg), and a rep is pulling yourself up by a foot (0.3 m) and back down by as much... it would take somewhere around 8 reps just to burn 1 calorie. Good for resistance, but not much of a calorie-burning exercise.

In terms of exercise and calories, what workouts burn the most per hour?

The more vigorous the workout, the more calories per hour the exerciser will burn. Full body workouts tend to burn more calories per hour than partial body workouts. An elliptical machine, for example, where the user moves their arms, will burn more calories per hour than a stationary bicycle. Sports such as running, hiking and racquetball also burn a high number of calories per hour.
