Karandora, the macro I'm using is much better than Writer's Tool. You can find 
the code at http://
yawar.blogspot.com/2006/05/live-word-count-script-for.html. You just have to 
copy and paste it into 
an empty file and save it as a .py extension (and you need python libs 
installed). It works great. It's in a 
tiny window that doesn't take up too much space (I usually just move it to the 
bottom of the screen 
over the status bar, where it should be anyway). The only problem I have with 
it is having to go Tools > 
Macros > Run Macro every time I open a new document.

And for the person who recommended AbiWord. I've tried that before and don't 
care for it. I'm most 
using this on a laptop with limited screen space. I want my OOo Writer window 
to be maximized in the 
screen without any big, obtrusive overlay windows taking up too much space 
(which AbiWord's live 
word count window did).
