Help with this Riddle!?!?!?

Question:I would love to know the answer to this riddle! Does anyone know?

The Unicorn is a very intelligent animal. It knows how to count... sort of.

When you say "one", it stomps its hoof one time. When you say "two", it does it twice. When you say "three", it stomps its hoof three times.

After that, though, the stomps seemingly don't match up with what you say. When you say 4, it stomps twice. When you say 5, it stomps once. When you say 6, it stomps twice. When you say 7, it stomps 3 times. When you say 8, it stomps 4 times. When you say 9, it stomps twice, and when you say 10, it only stomps once.

When you say 15, it stomps twice, and when you say 20, it also stomps twice.

How many times will it stomp its hoof when you say "33"?

Answers:
the answer is 2..its a sequence which repeats itself.123212342
One possibility is that it is used to Roman numerals and is indicating the number of digits.

E.g.
1=I thus 1
2= II 2
3=III 3
4=IV 2
5=V 1
6=VI 2
7=VII 3
8=VIII 4 (only used on clocks - IIX is correct)
9=IX 2
10=X 1
15=XV 2
20=XX 2
33=XXXIII 6
Im not sure but i think i figured it out.
NUMBER - STOMPS
1-1
2-2
3-3

4-2

5-1
6-2
7-3

8-4
9-2
it goes on it only tells you 15 and 20 but not 11-14 and 16-19 which means you have to figure that out with the help of 15 and 20.
what i noticed was that the numbers n 11-14 could be the same numbers as 2-5 because of the numbers 1 stomp after 10 and the number 2 after 15.
10-1
11-2
12-3

13-2

14-1
15-2
16-3
now the numbers between 16-19 also look like the numbers between 7-10.
17-4
18-2

19-1
20 being 2
21-3

22-2

23-1
24-2
25-3

26-4
27-2

28-1
29-2
30-3

31-2

32-1
33-2
The Number 33 will make the unicorn stomp 2 times.
It basically goes on a 123 then 2 then another 123 then 42 and this is repeated again and again.
zzz... (33) 3+3 = 6... hmmm... beer... zzz.

None, there's no such thing as unicorns!
