I'd like that as well. And encourage everyone to tell Kobo directly what they want. The annoying thing is that they actually store the word count in the database for kepubs. That means it is somewhere they could retrieve it without that much work.

As it doesn't exist, I use a metadata plugboard in calibre to put the word count into the comments when the book is sent to the device. I know others put it elsewhere, such as the subtitle or appended to the author. That way it will be displayed in the book list.
