When people post the phrase, "No words", it's a little bit misleading.
Because they are using two words.

So really they should be saying, "Two words, and those two words are, "No words".

But now they're up to nine words. So they would have to lead off with, "Nine words..... Two words. And those two words are "No words."

But now they're up to eleven words.

And there is no end in sight.

2. That reply is also two words.
The other letters are merely symbols which indicate a place where actual words should be.

8. That's technically two words, but you typed them as one.
So I'm going to let you slide this time.

9. Maybe in some African click language, but in English?
I understand that those are sounds which carry intelligence, click click, but words.....no. IMHO.

16. Fewer than twenty words.
A simple upper bound is easier than an exact count.

Problem solved.
