Is it measured the total number of words typed per minutes / letters per minutes ? And what if a word is typed mistakenly.

That's really an interestingly good question, shsaifee. To shed light on your query, I feel that this particular site could perhaps be of help: http://lifehacker.com/software/typing/measure-how-fast-you-type-184997.php Do check it out, if you have time.

That was an interesting piece of information. But I could not find the link that is being mentioned in the site about taking a typing test. Otherwise, that was cool.
