Frankly, even for a "work of art", these sound like severely misguided
questions. What in the _world_ will you learn, when you learn this "number of
words"? And when you say "number of words in the bible", do you mean in the
official text for the OT books that the Jews maintain, or do you mean BHS or
BHK? Or do you intend to include the Deuterocanonical books? And for the New,
Nestle-Aland or UBS? Or did you mean in a _translation_? WHich translation?
Obviously they are all going to be different.
This is why the best help I can thik of to offer you is to dissuade you from
such a vain pursuit.

On this subject scholar, Martin Werner, wrote:
"... in the Post-Apostolic period the appearances of angels in the Old
Testament narrative, so far as they occurred in some way for the
succour of men, had already begun to be interpreted as appearances of
Christ. This identification long remained a favourite one, as Origen,
Justin, Irenaeus, Novatian and the Letter of Hymenaeus as well as other
documents abundantly show us." 1
Another scholar, John A. Lees asserted:
"The earlier Protestant scholars usually identified Michael (the
archangel) with the preincarnate Christ, finding support for their
view, not only in the juxtaposition of the ‘child’ and the
archangel in Revelation 12, but also in the attributes ascribed to him
in Dnl [Daniel]..." 2
A popular, contemporary Protestant evangelist, Billy Graham, claimed
that:
"Some places in the Old Testament tell us that the Second Person of the
