Generating statistics for WP:WBRE and maybe some more statistics (if there would be some support for this idea)

it's technically possible to create a lot of various statistics from xml dumps I already wrote a code to make a table which is now available on WBRE page, it can be also much more specific, but for beginning the bot would only refresh table every month or two
