When I pasted Alpharama into MS Word, it said 47K, so I'm not sure where ff.net is getting the other 10K. Even the 47K is inflated because the line - A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z -, which appears several times in your story, counts as 28 words, and markers like - A - count as three words each. So with all that word count inflation taken out, it's probably about the same length as TDSC.
