I have to agree with the people who think that the stats are useless. I am
sure that some people (usually those that make the list) would be interested
in them, but most of us really don't care. It might even make a user or
site up their volume just to see if they could make the list (so much for
junk mail).

If you want to generate that stuff, great! If you want to distribute it,
wonderful! Just don't distribute it on news. Why not ask everyone who wants
a copy to please send you their address and mail it to them? Better yet,
pass around all of those neat sources and let those people who care generate
the statistics locally so that they relate to something like their reality?
