I wonder how the results would change if it was based not on words but rather by lines (not string lines but actor lines in conversation).

Its also funny how Stan talks more than Kyle given the show now has a recurring joke that makes fun of Kyle's long educational dialogues.

Maybe because of Kyle's decision to not give long speeches last season (:

It would definitely change. For instance I'd expect Kyle's words-per-sentence (or at least his 90th percentile sentence length) to be higher than Stan's, due to his speeches.
