From my database with roughly 50.000 lexical
entries (compounds) I get a
number of 1431 compounds with
at least two readings and 71 with at least three
readings.
If I include also 60.000 personal and local names
I get 6840 compounds with two or more, 1344 with three
or more and 348 with four or more readings.
