Lies, damned lies and statistics

Someone (not I) has tracked the frequency with which certain words appear in the novel.

after (45) ago (17) back (252) before (45) beyond (45) blackened (19), blanket (193) could (189) down (244) fire (136) man (193) okay (195) rain (44) sorry (27) time (100) water (109)

In what ways does this statistical information strengthen, or cause you to question, your thinking about The Road?
