Obviously what we need is an actual tool, rather than a formula, to give you the ouncage of the book.

Excellent point. It will obviously require a more substantial matrix. Even the file size would not properly predict the weightage of the paper equivelant (due to graphic image being made very large or small with the same amount of code)
Perhaps an ISO standard is needed if we are to properly grade literature by the pound in the age of ebooks?
