Following is a response from DHS staff member Tom Pullum:

The best variable for this purpose is hv000 (in Stata, HV000 in SPSS). That variable only takes one value, the string "NG7". If you tab that variable, without weights, you get 188,010 cases in the PR file, i.e. individuals in the household survey. If you do the same thing in the HR file, which has households as units, you get 40,427 households.
