I'm not sure about this, but try SALT (do a google search); 
speech/hearing labs use this software, I think, for data

I know of software that can calculate # of words per T-unit, 
etc.  but only AFTER someone marks the T-units.  But it's 
entirely likely that software has become smarter since I 
last investigated.

Code-A-Text to do this sort of task. (http://www.code-a-
text.co.uk/index.htm)   It worked ok, was not entirely user-
friendly, was cheaper than others (at the time about $200 
compared to $900 for more expensive programs).
