Post the code to GitHub, then click on the file. Up the top, you'll
see something like this:

https://github.com/Rosuav/LetMeKnow/blob/master/letmeknow.py
231 lines (212 sloc)

The first figure is the raw line count. The second is, in theory at
least, the number of lines of "actual code".

Cheating? Totally. Effective? Yup.
