Default Dipstick Measurements

Does anyone know the number of ounces of oil between the add and full marks on the trans dipstick? I know I could just fill it and figure it out myself, but I'm monitoring transfer to determine loss in ounces versus miles on an ongoing basis.

from my experience and recollection it seems to have been ~4 - 6 ounces.....ish..but never took the time to attempt any kind of exact measurements
