As long as you use the same method of calculating page counts, the results should be fairly consistent. I tried the various methods and, for my purposes, reading epubs, found the Adobe synthetic page number algorithm was the most consistent. I was suggested to try the APNX page numbers but found they were good for some books and for others, they were wildly inconsistent.
OTOH, I am not a big fan of page numbers in ebooks. Reflowable format and page number are a bit of an oxymoron. Even some ebooks that have come with page lists based on the hardcover are not all that useful unless you happen to own the hardcover edition the page numbers are based on (one older book that a book club at work was reading turned out to have 3 different hardcover editions with the first edition having 28 more pages than the 2nd and 3rd editions) never mind the differences between the epub, KF8 and KFX variants of the ebook.
