In Word 2013/2010, File>Option>Proofing
In word 2007, search for proofing option

This will enable readability statistics.
A usual rule of thumb is that the Flesch-Kincaid Grade (FKG) Level should be around 10-12, and the Flesch Reading Ease should be between 60-70.
The FKG level is between 1-12, and represents how many years of US school is needed to understand the document.
There is also passive sentence score. While technical documents may be written with some passive statements, business documents are written with active sentences.
