You ask the librarian how often the word "arrow" is in Lord of the Rings, and they have to tell you?

Not sure what your point is, but that functionality could be built into a website without running any code clientside.

My whole comment was that I'm not sure what the point is, because that's not how it works in reality. So if you actually want to know, you'll have to ask the author of the comment above me.
