Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Word Stats

The calculations are refreshed every few seconds.

Yes. They are ignored only for keyword counts.

They try to reflect how easy the text is to read. You can write an article about relativity in simple English and it will be rated as low level.

For ARI and CLI, they are the U.S. grade level of the text. Roughly, grade level 1 corresponds to ages 6-8, grade 8 to 14 years old, grade 12 to 17 years old. For LIX: below 25: Children's Books 25 - 30: Simple texts 30 - 40: Normal Text / Fiction 40 - 50: Factual information, such as Wikipedia 50 - 60: Technical texts over 60: Specialist texts / research / dissertations Each index uses a different algorithm: ARI is based on word length and words per sentence. CLI is based on characters per 100 words, excluding non-word characters, and sentences per 100 words LIX is based on average words between pauses (periods, colons, semicolons, etc.) and average words longer than 6 characters. Check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Readability_test for more information.

These three indexes don't rely on syllable counting, which is a bit more complicated and language dependent. The stats page timed out. Try selecting a shorter period, disabling the setting to count drafts and pending posts, disabling the setting to ignore common words or shortening your list of ignored keywords.
