That would work. You have to launch the Script Editor application then paste in that code then click the Run button for it to do a word count.
The Script Editor should be found in the /Applications/AppleScript/ folder.
Then paste the following into the Script Editor window:
tell application “TextEdit”
count words of document 1
end tell
Then click the Run button.

Cynthia A,
As far as AppleScripts, I recommend you using Automator if you have Tiger or Leopard for creating AppleScripts easily. You can simply drag and drop pre-made scripts from this program.
I love using TextEdit, and use it daily, but I’m afraid that it doesn’t offer a word or character count feature. There are 3rd party programs for counting words with TextEdit or other word processors.
Word Counter
http://www.supermagnus.com/mac/Word_Counter/
NanoCount
http://www.tuaw.com/2005/10/24/add-a-word-count-to-textedit-with-nanocount/
…or you can go to my favorite download site and check out the other word counter programs available.

I hope that these will help you. Best of luck.
