I've writen code for calculating the Läsbarhetsindex (Björnsson, 1968).
LIX = 100*RWL+ASL
*Where*
RLW (Ratio of long Words to all words) = Number of Long Words / Number of Words
ASL (Average sentence length) = number of Words / Number of Sentences
and: Long Words have more than six characters.
This Readability-Score formula has been developed for Swedish, but also works for German and English. More Informations:
