--numWords option for LDADriver

Hey,
I got an error running LDA because I hadn't set my --numWords high
enough (when moving from a small test dataset to a bigger one)
Unless I'm mistaken it should be straightforward to examine the
dictionary to get a precise value rather than having the user have to
estimate??
Might have a crack at a patch...

Yes, I had the same sense when I looked at it.
