This is not a language forum. What language are you referring to and I will move you to the appropriate forum.

using unix command u can find it..

wc -w filename

Even in the source code also u can run this command using system function.

You can also use a host of other languages and techniques as well. As Mary said, be more specific in your question and it will be much easier to help you.
