words in koran vs word in bible

on this site they got a search function in a bible and in the koran.
i searched at some words to compare the hit results in both books

The bible probably contain more words as the koran because most words got more counts then in the koran. I couldn't find how many words both book contain, and i'am to lazy to count them.

strange exception is that the word hell is more present in the koran then in the bible, its the only word that i could find that is more present in the koran then in the bible.

I did the same thing but then with Google with the Koran and bible in combinations with one of the words.
the difference in this google hits is probably that the bible reader are mostly more western people who are more online. again is hell the exception

still according this stats the bible counts more aggressive words as the koran, so people should think about tear pages out of the bible as well.

Of course counting words isn't a way to compare books or religions with each other. so this are just bullshit stats.

Just an other fact i see google gives more hits with bible + rimming then bible + hell.

Very interesting, though I am somewhat suspicious. Will look into it further.

Nice little research!

The info I found:
words in bible: 500000
words in quran: 80000

Man the quran is a small book, maybe I should try to read that instead of the bible.
So we should make a weighted table. Divide by number of words and multiply with something.

yup with knowing the total words in the books i can make a table of how big precentage each word is compared to the total amount of words. i will do that after my work
