Find number of instances of a given word

[Hi there, I’m a noob so apologies if I’m posting this in the wrong forum or am otherwise violating norms]

I often want to know how many instances of a word exist in my Scrivener document. Is there an easy way to do this? The only thing I can think to do right now is select Edit -> Find, then manually count how many times I have to hit next until I reach the end of the document. For a 300-page document, this is no fun!

Something tells me there’s a much easier way to do this, but so far I’ve failed in my search. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Try Project/Statistics/Word Frequency – at the bottom.

The list of words to ignore can be edited in the Statistics/Options tab.
