Uncountable; almost always follows 'the' and is built with 'of' to name what is muddy (the muddiness of the road, of the water). Covers both wet, earthy ground and water that looks thick and unclear.

常見錯誤

There was a lot of muddiness on the road.
muddiness is uncountable, so it has no plural and takes 'a lot of' rather than 'many'.
