Ummmm, it's too hard to tell -- if not impossible!! There are too many variables... font size, leading, etc etc to calculate how long your page will be.... and then you'd have to get information back about screen size/resolution from javascript (yuk). Perhaps you could do it in a simpler way, based on the length of the main body of content... in the case of an article/tutorial/news based site, you could evaluate the length of the main content (article for ex), and if it's more than 500 words or something, put a link in.... not as pin-point as you want though.
