I have about 800 topics in a RoboHelp HTML help project. I need to send the files out for translations, so I need to get a word count. Is something in RoboHelp that will generate a word count on all files in a project?

there is a simple and free online website word count tool especially developed by a website Russian translator. It's very easy, it can calculate the total number of words, new words and repetitions of the whole domain. And you can also get the results for each separate page.

Yes. It's called using the Printed Documentation single source layout and then using Word's word count function

Its a free tool called Translator's Abacus and it can count words in any set of files.
