Just to add to Mike's comment on this one, there's a number of ways you can get LW to work with tris.
First, you can force Modeller to work with triangles only by opening up the Options panel (o) and selecting 'Triangles' as your polygon type.
If you prefer to work with quads, then simply use the 'Triple' command (Multiply\Triple).
In order to work out your polygon counts, if working in quads, simply double the number of polygons to convert this to a Triangle count. (General rule of thumb is that any regular polygon having n vertices can be split into n-2 number of triangles).
Hope this helps...
