Default Word Count - what does it count?

I use Word Count to get character and line counts for my business. I need to
know what characters Word counts in a file, and how Word defines a character,
line and word. Also, I use the Tools/ Word Count, and it shows number of
characters, words and lines. However, if I divide the number of characters
by 65, (the average size of a line of typing) the result I get is a much
lower number of lines that what Word Count shows as the 'lines'. This is
very confusing.
