Brilliant -- it's actually an implementation of the map reduce word count algorithm in vim. I've used something similar to the 3rd step before to create a list of numbers in increasing order (i.e. 10i0<CR><ESC>10kqqvawyjvawp^a...@q) and I *almost* suggested something along these lines but figured no one would want such a solution.
