Oh nice. Though I'll probably never use dstats in its globality, I'll most certainly use this summary module. Having a small std.stats module inserted into phobos doesn't strike me as overkill or too niche, but maybe I'm biased. I'm sure everyone here use less than a dozen modules on most projects. I mean, I never do sockets, xml, GUI, ... But I intensively use std.functional, algorithm, traits, range, typecons, typetuple, array, ...
