For instance, "1" would be 0, "1.1" would be 2, "1.11" would be 3, etc.

well, whoops, I accidently forgot that in mine a whole number shows up as "1"

Well, I can do it by adding one line and editting one of your lines if you don't make me set the TID back.

Make that adding one lines, and doubling/editting one of yours.

set x to (the text returned of (display dialog "Number:" default answer "")) as real
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "."
if x = (round x) then display dialog "The numer of decimal places of " & (x as string) & " is 0."
if x /= (round x) then display dialog "The number of decimal places of " & x & " is " & (length of (text item 2 of (x as string)))

Otherwise I have to add one more line

set x to (the text returned of (display dialog "Number:" default answer "")) as real
set {oldTID, AppleScript's text item delimiters} to {AppleScript's text item delimiters, "."}
if x = (round x) then display dialog "The numer of decimal places of " & (x as string) & " is 0."
if x /= (round x) then display dialog "The number of decimal places of " & x & " is " & (length of (text item 2 of (x as string)))
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to oldTID
