I think it would help to ask what the goals of the statistics are? The
statistics are presumably used to answer some questions. What are those
questions?
Having a user agent defined in the clients connecting PyPI could also
allow to make statistics on the usage of such tools (xx% of all the
downloads on pypi.python.org are made by buildout, by the distutils2
index crawler, by pip etc.)
I'm +1 on having CI tools using specific HTTP headers in order to avoid
using those information as "user downloads". We can probably store this
information in a different place and display clearly what the number of
downloads for CI tools is on pypi.py.org
