The problem can be solved by analyzing the frequency of letters in the English language. You can easily find the graph online, then make a frequency graph for the encoded message. The graphs, as expected, are not exactly equivalent (the message is too short), but it works for the ten most frequent letters. You can see that each real letter was substituted with its opposite in the frequency graph (e became z, t became q, etc) Once you substitute the real letters, you can find the message and the required number.

Shortcut: The title is the last sentence of the encoded message.

The decoded message is:

ONE SHOULD QUICKLY BE ABLE TO DECODE THIS PUZZLE IF ONE UNDERSTOOD THE IMPORTANCE OF ZIPF'S MYSTERY. EVERYDAY WE ENCOUNTER ENCODED MESSAGES THAT WE ALMOST AUTOMATICALLY TRANSLATE WITH OUR BRAINS. THE FACT THAT THIS TEXT DEMANDS A LITTLE BIT OF STINKY HARD WORK MAKES IT OBVIOUS FOR THE SOLVER THAT OUR MIND IS THE COOLEST MACHINE EVER. ANYWAYS, THE ANSWER IS FIVE HUNDRED FIFTY-FIVE MILLION FOUR HUNDRED EIGHTY-THREE THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED NINETY-THREE. HAVE AN AMAZING DAY.

How to solve this:

Collected all two letter words and compared them with usually used words. Then, I continued the process till I reach 4 letter words. Used some long words to fill with the letters I got and compare them with words asociated with math if possible.

What I found is that 2 letters connects with onw another such as x is e and e is z. Pretty much that means you actually need to find only 13 letters to find all 26.

Shortcut : The title is last sentence

The order of the alphabet:

written : a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z

meaning : x s w g z l d p k o i f u v j h t y b q m n c a r e

Decoded :

One should quickly be able to decode this puzzle if one understood the importance of zipf's mystery. Everyday we encounter encoded messages that we almost automatically translate with our brains. The fact that this text demands a little bit of stinky hard work makes it obvious for the solver that our mind is the coolest machine ever. Anyways, the answer is five hundred fifty-five million four hundred eighty-three thousand one hundred ninety-three. Have an amazing day.

P.S. I'm the same person and I'm completely sorry for my rude comments and behavior on my previous post. I was only writing it on a joking manner and didn't mean it seriously. Though, to find that that 2 letters correlates with one another is quite dissapointing by dropping the overall difficulty as a cipher. I'm 18 and not 24, I made my fb when I was under age.
