AP_Dialog_WordCount uses some code in FV_View to determine that sort of information. I know you'll probably want to avoid touching view-like things, but ultimately it digs through the PT to count how many PTX_Blocks, etc... that there are. It would be a useful reference point.
Also, the PD_Document class should be of some great use to you here, since it obviously knows when appendSpan and appendStrux are called. You might do best to make a few minor mods to the Doc class that keeps a bit of meta-accounting information handy.
