In the Story Info panel (to the left of Copyfit Info at the bottom of the window) ... you know where you see a story's word count? There are four measures there: Line count ("L:"), Word count (W), Character count (C), and Column Depth (D) which is measured in inches. The Story Info panel provides a readout of the active story, that is, the one where your cursor is blinking. The story doesn't have to be checked out or even editable in order to get these measures.
In editable stories, the ones you can see in Story and Galley view, there is a vertical measure of column inches on the left side of the window, to the right of the list of style names.
