Website that shows word-count for published novels?

I'm interested to see what sites people offer. This is one I use at school; it includes kids' and YA titles: http://www.renaissance.com/store/quiz_home.asp#quicksearch

O_O I've been wondering if there was a place to find word counts. Awesome! *Bookmarks.*

And... is that a site for AR quizzes?

I found this one a while back: www.arbookfind.com. You must specify parent, teacher, student, but there's no other sign-ins. Click on a book and it gives you the word count. I hope this helps!

That's the one I was thinking of, Trocadero, thank you. That would be interesting though if there's others I haven't seen. Maybe that have a more complete database. I kind of wish one of Amazon's features would be an automatic count of the words in each of the books that get uploaded to their sites.

Yeah, it sort of surprises me that there's no way to get word counts for ebooks either. The estimation method for print books doesn't work for e-books, since the number of words per line is entirely font based, of course, and the number of lines per "page" varies so greatly between titles (and the number of "pages" in an e-book has no relationship to the number of pages that seem to be present in either the hardcover or paperback version).

Omni lit and All Romance ebooks often have word count listed but tend not to for books published by The Big Five for some reason.
