Just to clarify for anyone reading this in future, this is not quite correct. This plugin will convert to EPUB silently if it needs to in order to perform a count. That conversion is to a temporary book that gets discarded automatically when the plugin finishes.

For certain formats the plugin has optimisations that remove the need to do a conversion - such as for PDF, CBR and CBZ.

So you don't have to explicitly convert to EPUB and discard it after running the plugin - it will figure this out for you.
