I edit many MS Word documents for my students and others. I would be
interested in finding metrics for the percentage changes that I make in each.
E.g. overall % of text changed broken down into insertions and deletions and
also a change in the document size (I suspect most will be smaller once I
remove superfluous words).

Word count, anyway, is easy: in the Reviewing toolbar (2003), the drop-
down menu "Show" offers you "Original" and "Final" -- set it to either
of those, with Markup not showing, and run Word count.
