If you have python programming skills,
you might consider ....
NLTK : Natural Language Toolkit
google-ize NLTK for information
I don't know if NLTK will lead you directly
to the statistical numbers you are seeking
but it will parse text, count words,
provide word frequencies, enumerate sentences,
etc ....
NLTK results could be fed to other python programs
for graphical analysis.
My personal experience with NLTK is limited
and I haven't used it for anything other than
simple tests just to get a feel for it ....
