Wendy, I would like to further explain SHL's comment.

The website you mentioned estimates the size of your vocabulary. It estimates the number of words in your vocabulary. A vocabulary is a set of different words.

Vocabulary is usually an uncountable noun, like "money."

"How much money do you have?" is correct.

"How many zlotys do you have?" is correct.

"How many money do you have?" is wrong.

"Do you want to know how many English words you know?" is correct.

"Do you want to know how many English vocabularies you know? is wrong.

That's the simple explanation. Stop reading here!

You can talk about "vocabularies" if you mean two different sets of words. For example, I can say this: "Every technical field has a vocabulary of its own. Sailors and landsmen have different vocabularies. The landsman says "front and back," the sailor says "fore and aft." The landsman says "floor," the sailor says "deck." The landsman says "stairs," the sailor says "companionway."

@wendy if you are not native you are very unlikely to catch up with a native.

And for foreign learners of English, we've found that the most common vocabulary size is from 2,500–9,000 words.

my score 33400, 

This means you can still study and become fluent in English, you can still become capable enough to teach English, .You will not be able to teach advanced subjects using the English language. like nuclear physics unless you also study nuclear physics In english.

If you can tick most of the boxes on the left you are doing very well, the boxes on the right are for people who enter quiz shows for a living.

I took the test just for fun. It's one thing to know words by heart, another thing to apply them at the right moment and in the right place. My result was not the worst (14.200).  But this is completely unimportant! What does this say about my skills? Nothing! I'm sure that I am much weaker if it comes to free conversation. Writing and understanding by reading and listening are necessary targets. But the capability to participate fluently in a conversation is most important. I can write some smart thoughts in elaborated words. If they are not immediately available in a dialogue, they have no value!

By „vocabularies“ do you mean words, phrases a person knows? A vocabulary is a collection of words a person knows, or that exist in a given language. They`re two different things. 

You can‘t say „how many vocabularies“ do you know. It`s „how many words and phrases do you know?“
