htdig doesn't do this directly, but it could be done pretty easily by
analysing the db.wordlist file in 3.1.x, or running htdump and analysing
the db.worddump file in 3.2.x.  Either way, you could write a simple
awk or Perl script that would total up the word counts.

Danke shoen!  I've added this tip to FAQ 4.6.
