I'm trying to come up with as generic as possible ideas. So far I'm
calculating things like session data entropy, most frequent character,
counts of certain characters.

The IDS literature is over-filled of techniques (both deterministic and stochastic, or ML-based) of any sort to model "good" traffic that may inspire your project.

I don't have the exact references with me but a quick Google Scholar for terms like "tcp" "anomaly" "payload" narrowed between 2003 and 2006 (when anomaly-based NIDS were a hot topic) will spot out the main contributions.

I feel there's even a little room for improvements to the existing approaches.
