I may be misinterpreting what you are asking, but the OOo Writer Word
Count gives two values - 1 for the selected text and one for the whole document. What you seem to be asking concerns "hidden text". First off, I have never come across OOo Writer hiding text ...

What I meant was the text that has been deleted while the option "Track
changes" is selected. The option Edit > Changes > Show can be used to
reveal or to hide the deleted text.

It seems that if you use change-tracking, which I was doing, Openoffice
counts the deleted text as part of its word count. If I select the whole
text––i.e. the selection equals the whole document––the word count
sometimes (but not predictably) reports the correct figure for
"Selection" but counts the deleted text in the figure it reports for
"Document."

Yes, I did a web search but could find no information.
