Christopher added a comment.

I am blocked on this by several problems with the data model/ontology.  The 
question of the relationship of the data model and the RDF node definitions is 
a bit complicated, perhaps more so than it should be.  A reference is a special 
type of statement defined by its relationship to other statements.  An 
"unreferenced statement" is undefined in the ontology and in the RDF format.  
All statements **should** in practice have a reference node.  But this is not 
an enforceable constraint in the data model apparently.

I think that when a statement is born, it should also create a reference 
"placeholder" or blank node in the RDF.  With this information in the RDF, 
counting these "bad" statements would be much easier.
