Since you brought up stats I thought I would mention:

http://www.freshports.org/graphs2.php

It's something I put together to try to get a better picture of things
that freshports knows about.  If anyone has any ideas for other graphs
they would like to see please mail me about it.  It's quite easy to add
more - just need to come up with some SQL and format the result into a
JSON object.  If there is anything people want to see graphed that may
help make managing the ports tree easier I'd be happy to add them.

The only catch is that you'll need a somewhat modern browser and
javascript turned on.  You also can not save the graphs off as they are
not images.
