You can do something like this:
int wc = [[myString componentsSeparatedByString: @" "] count];
or
int wc = [[[myAttributedString string] componentsSeparatedByString: @"
"] count];
If it will give you acceptable performance or not depends on how you
use it (how large is the string, how often is it called, et.c.).
