I would agree up to a point, but there are lots of other ways to
measure and count a repository.  Here we run a locally-developed
servlet that provides simple measures of how large the collection is
at the moment you ask it.  That is a statistic, and something that
people want to know and chart over time.  It is at right angles to
everything Google Analytics does.

When asking for "statistics", it's important to first clearly explain
what it is you want to study and what you hope to learn.
