There's a script in SVN: /applications/utils/filter/osm-length/osm-length-2.pl You'd have to call this like so: perl osm-length-2.pl < myfile.osm > foo.osm 2> result and then you'll have in "result" a text file that gives road lengths for every type of highway contained in the input file (other data is disregarded). (foo.osm has a copy of myfile.osm with way lengths added.) Unfortunately this will also count ways that have an "action=delete" tag because you deleted them in JOSM. You can work around this by either making sure that the deleted objects are actually removed from the file (#12 in JOSM/Advanced_Tricks in the wiki) or, instead of removing the bits you don't want, just tag them "highway=deleted" and they'll count towards the extra category "deleted" which you can then ignore.
