How do I do?

For a quick count of words in any section of your document, select that section and then use Tools -> Word Count. This provides a count of characters and words for both the section and the entire document.

You can also use File -> Properties..., select the Statistics tab and mouse-press “Update” to get a count of lines in the document.

The only way I know to get a count of lines in a section would be to select the segment, copy it, paste it into a new document, and then use File -> Properties... in that new document. It would not be difficult to write a macro to count lines in a section, and perhaps someone has done so, though I can’t find one at the moment.
