whatever the count is, it won't be very different. if you prep for as many characters as last year, it'll be easy to accomodate a small change.

It is 4500 characters including spaces. I think that number has been pretty constant.
 
Remember to count the spaces at the end of sentences, returns at the end of a paragraph, returns to create a blank line between paragraphs, and there is no indent (you can put in five blank spaces for a similar effect).
