It was 320 words.

As far as I recall Kobo stores words-per-chapter variable in its database. I'd assumed they used it for estimating time remaining, but I don't know.
And for the in-book chapter graph.

Anyway, just think of the 'fun' to be had arguing the best value for words-per-page or the best way to count words.
Of course, we'd first of all have to sort out what a "word" was. And I am not going anywhere near that again.
