The first pipe is an expensive (and error prone) way to mimic the behaviour of ls *; not sure what it should be good for.
wc -l yields the count of lines, not words.
Please note that options to any command are introduced by a - (minus sign), NOT a – (Unicode U+2014, "EM DASH") character which leads to a syntax error.

unihist
unihist(1) General Commands Manual unihist(1)
NAME
unihist - Generate a histogram of the characters in a Unicode file
SYNOPSIS
unihist ([option flags])
DESCRIPTION
unihist generates a histogram of the characters in its input, which must be encoded in UTF-8 Unicode. By default, for each character it
prints the frequency of the character as a percentage of the total, the absolute number of tokens in the input, the UTF-32 code in hexa-
decimal, and, if the character is displayable, the glyph itself as UTF-8 Unicode. Command line flags allow unwanted information to be sup-
pressed. In particular, note that by suppressing the percentages and counts it is possible to generate a list of the unique characters in
the input.
Output is produced ordered by character code. To sort it in descending order of frequency, pipe the output into the command:
sort -k1 -n -r
By default, unihist handles all of Unicode. To reduce memory usage and increase speed, it may be compiled so as to handle only the Basic
Multilingual Plane (plane 0) by defining BMPONLY.
COMMAND LINE FLAGS
-c Suppress printing of counts and percentages.
-g Suppress printing of glyphs.
-h Print usage information.
-u Suppress printing of the Unicode code as text.
-v Print version information.
