Hi Manish,

these are useful examples, but I find it too complex to fix - this  
might need a complete rewrite of the statistics code - and I don't  
have the time and concentration for this.  Part of the complexity is  
the intermingling of TODO and checkboxes, which makes this a  
complicated logic.

I keep this in my list of things to look at if I am bored, but it is  
not likely to be fixed any time soon.

Patches - on the other hand - are always welcome! :-)
