[NTG-context] extracting word count from a *.words file

[Jelle Huisman]

Hello all,

Here is another question. Consider this test file:

\starttext
\setupspellchecking[state=start,method=2]
\ctxlua{languages.words.threshold=3}
\input knuth
\stoptext

Typesetting this file produces a word list 'test.words' which ends like
this:

 ["threshold"]=1,
 ["total"]=122,
 ["version"]=1,
}

Is there a way to extract the value for ["total"] ('122' in this case)
so that I can use that value somewhere else, e.g. in a project file
where I want to present a word count.

Thanks for a pointer!

Jelle
