PathLength on OrderedTree ​

The sum of the depths of the vertices, the root's being 0.

On OrderedTree

Each vertex below a child sits one deeper than in the child's own tree, so the child contributes its vertex count plus its own path length.

Called as CombinatorialStat(x, "PathLength"). The head's page has its examples.
