If columns are not specified for the Word Count or Readability statistics, the new option should probably be disabled (greyed-out).

I suggest this for the tooltip, and/or 1st post description.

Check this option to use the format specified in the Preferred Output Format setting to calculate statistics. If that format is absent, or this option is not checked (default), statistics will be calculated using whichever of the available formats appears highest in the Preferred Input Format list. The Preferred Output and Input settings are specified in Preferences->Behaviour.
I disagree with spoon feeding users, especially on things they're only likely to use once, better to encourage them to read tooltips and/or doco. If you treat people as dummies they will behave accordingly.

Aside, I don't see a tooltip for the Preferred Input Formats list in Preferences->Behaviour.
