This is not quite true.  In particular, "y" can only occur in lujvo (and
cmevla), and in lujvo at least such syllables can only have the form Cy,
no clusters, no coda.  That cuts back the count of syllables from 25,020
(counting "." and "'" as different) to 139*9*18 + 17*1*1 = 23,786 vocalic
syllables. 

True, but camxes allows CCCyC syllables in lojbanic cmevla, so I counted them as valid syllables.

Also CCy and CCCy can appear in fu'ivla rafsi.
