I'm creating a AI that plays Scrabble / Words with Friends. I'm familiar with the tile count distribution in standard versions of both games (this list is one example), but Words with Friends recently released a new game mode in which a smaller board is used with fewer tiles. Does anybody happen to know what the tile count distribution is in this new mode?

This screenshot shows the tile bag immediately after starting a new Fast Play game. You'll notice the "tiles left" count does not match the sum of the tiles "in the bag" (so that you can't cheat.)
