I don't buy books because of their word count either... but I would want to know what it is prior to buying.

I'd hate paying a premium price that's 1.5 or 2 times more than an average book, only to find that the book is also 1.5 or 2 times smaller than an average book. And some of the mainstream titles from major publishers have had questionable prices for ebooks at times, making me weary of that.
