Reserved keywords count by programming language?

Tags:

keyword

programming-languages

Is there a ranking or table of the number of reserved keywords in various programming languages?

I do not need to know the keywords per se but how many keywords languages like C, C++, C#, Perl, Python, PHP, Smalltalk, Lisp, and Ruby have.
