APNX in "slow" or "accurate" mode turns out to be the most accurate overall, as both word and paragraph count are part of the calculation, and only text is counted.
APNX is very much inaccurate. When you get an APNX from Amazon to give you page numbers, it's based on some pBook version which as we know is inaccurate.

A hardcover, MMPB, trade paperback, & eBook should all have different page numbers.
