Melvin - thanks for sharing.
Here is the query I use which lists the percent of queries against the
table which use the index ordered by least used first.
The 'pg_relation_size(relid)>(5*8192)' is used to remove any tables that
would be so small the optimizer would just choose a table scan.
SELECT schemaname,
relname,
idx_scan,
seq_scan,
(100 * idx_scan / (seq_scan + idx_scan)) AS perc_idx_used
FROM pg_stat_user_tables
WHERE pg_relation_size(relid)>(5*8192)
AND NOT ((idx_scan=0
OR idx_scan=NULL)
AND seq_scan=0)
ORDER BY perc_idx_used;
