Hi,

Try the `count-words' command from a narrowed buffer (without active region).

The message displayed in the echo area is "Buffer has X lines, Y
words, and Z characters.", where the values X, Y and Z are actually
computed for the narrowed portion (not for the entire buffer).

So, this is inaccurate.  The message should begin with something like
"Buffer (narrowed part) has ...".
