If you have a list of residue names you're interested in, that's a quite straightforward analysis to script. The PDB website can be used to generate a list of structures containing the residue(s) of interest, then it's just a few lines of code to download them in turn and count atoms.

There are quite a few with fragments of lipid molecules (such as the lipid tails), but I'm interested in structures of nearly-to-fully complete lipid molecules. And, these structures need not be of integral membrane proteins.
