Prompted by Wouter’s own count, I did a rough count of the number of words I’ve written here since 1999:
SELECT sum(LENGTH(field_body_value) - LENGTH(REPLACE(field_body_value, ' ', '')) + 1) as wordcount FROM field_data_field_body;
The total: 2,487,999 words, or an average of just about 100,000 words per year.
I counted in 2006 and came up with a total of 724,006; a more detailed count, by year, in 2005 counted 548,561 as of a year earlier.
