This depends on the yarn.

To give you a comparison, here are 3 different weight yarns (from Lion Brand web site). As you can see, even weight is not a firm determining factor in figuring the number of yards, although I would venture to say in most cases a lighter weight yarn will have more yards to the ounce.
