f you would like to perform a word count in PDF files that contain selectable digital text (recognized files), then AnyCount Professional will be enough.

If you would like to count unrecognized PDF files (files with some scanned text or text within images), then AnyCount Advanced(which has a built-in OCR engine) is required.

Please note that the Trial version of Anycount also supports OCR.
