Hi Ahmad,
 I really thought that you wanted the number of distinct rooms visited. I do not
understand completely what do you mean by "distinct moves", e.g. how many distinct
moves will a character have performed if he visited the following rooms in document
order:

 45040
 45030
 45020
 45020
 45020
 45040 
 45040 

Also, it is not clear that document order is the same as chronological order, and
there's no date/time information in the xml files you provided.

In case these are precisely defined, there should be an appropriate solution.

Cheers,
Dimitre Novatchev.
