How can I track the number of words I know based on Anki, and which deck should I focus on from now on?

I won't go into too much detail, but after finishing MNN 初級1 and completing half of 初級2, everything I did afterward was just premade Anki decks. I didn’t read light novels, play visual novels, or work on other grammar books, simply focused on Anki and nothing else.

So far, I’ve completed the following decks: Core2.3k (version 3), Kaishi 1.5k, Refold JP1k, Tango decks (N5, N4, N3), and 新完全マスター語彙3.

I recently bought the book この一冊で合格する3 from 日本語の森 as I plan to take the Noken 3 in July.
My plan is to write down every word from the vocabulary list in a notebook as I’ve never done much writing before, and to study the grammar. However aside from that I’d like to continue with some Anki decks that match my level but I'm not sure whether I should move on to the Tango N2 deck, look for 新完全マスター語彙2, or tackle the Core 10k deck.

My main concern though is figuring out the number of words I already know based on the decks that I’ve already completed, I think that by having a number estimation would help me choose an appropriate light novel if I decide to start reading one.

Thanks in advance.
