If you want an answer that will allow you to compare "apples to apples", you probably should state what type of pickup or configuration such as:

Single coil, humbucking, stacked coil, etc.

Otherwise the information given to you will be relatively meaningless since DC resistance can vary from around 15k to over 30K depending on pickup configuration and manufacturer.
