WikiStats is supposed to be a research and comparison aid to understand projects and communities, not a scoopmeter/hit list.

Yup, I added it because the UI there really helped lay folks understand exactly what metrics they were looking at (because they were framed as questions/answers.) The content may be different, but it helps to see UIs that had their intended affect with a larger-scale audience (and in this case, helped aid understanding of various issues within the newsroom.)

@Nemo_bis: The design right now is revolving around "Content, Contributing, and Reading". So that's the direction, still the same as the current wikistats but trying to add more structure. What do you think?

This is interesting context: T95172, if anyone's watching that task this is the place to engage.
