Basically after I've added a new book and I execute the Count Pages action the plugin will store in the dedicated column the word count. If I execute it again (and all the next times) it correctly stores the pages count.

Looking at the logs, it counts consistently pages & words on both runs. The difference is that the first run on a new book (and only the first) it will store the wrong number of the two.

It's not a big deal (I usually just run the plugin twice) but I find it curious.

I'm on the latest version of Calibre/Count Pages, running on a M1 Macbook, but this has been going on for a long time.
That does sound very odd and not something I have ever seen/experienced. However I would need a lot more than your description to look into it. Attach the log files from both the first time you run and the second time for the book. Are you definitely using the same method each time of invoking - you are not using the internet for one (which has no word count) and the plugins built in algorithms for the second run for instance. Also include a screenshot of your settings so can confirm what custom columns are assigned to each.
