__ of measure (mile or pound) (4)

I believe the answer is:

unit

(Other definitions for unit that I've seen before include "Individual thing as part of a whole" , "Constituent" , "Individual component" , "Single item; one" , "Military team" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday and the Newsday.com.
