It is required to have a proportional number of words with the grid size so that the grid is sufficiently filled. I suppose the area filled would want to be roughly the same each time. It would probably suffice to use a formula such as:

W = (x^2)/2

where W is number of words and x is gridsize.

Ok I have used a formula with the square of the grid /10 with a correction factor for the small grids and am pretty happy with that.
