The word "pray" appears in approximately 306 different verses of the Old and New Testaments (I'm searching in the King James version of The Bible).

The trouble with just counting the word though is that it is used in more than one way in the Bible... as an admonition to pray to God, but also in many instances it just says "I pray you brethren" or something similar, which means to ask them to consider something, not pray as in talk to God. So, if you are trying to find out numerically how much the Bible emphasizes prayer, you might get a skewed idea from that... and maybe just from counting the words as well. :) Reading the verses might offer a better perspective.
