Fun is all nice and may further support your claim about small world theory, but what are you really aiming for?

I mean what type of positive goals that stats will have to help the community if at all possible.

I think you might be missing the point. Think of the quote at the Perl Monks Stats Page: "It's Like Crack for Statisticians" --Ozymandias

Given the number of Stat Addicts around here, I don't think anyone would complain about more stats. :)
