    I'm doing a frequency count of Japanese vocabulary in post-war Japanese
    novels. Is there any rough guide to how many times a given word should
    appear before you can be reasonably confident of its rank? Or
    alternatively, at a given frequency, any way to calculate the likely range
    of ranks?
