     I completed a document 3 days ago that at the time had over 27,000 words (I don't remember how many 
more). On a 64 bit Ubuntu 11.10 system, AOO 3.4.1.1 reports 27,001 words as does LO 3.5.5.3 and 3.4.6 and 
3.6.0.4 in this order. So no confirmation here.
     It might be something in the Mac version though.
