Hi Keeker, i saw your post and was just browsing the web about 10 mins ago, i found an irc related site that had a stats page, so i followed its source code and came up with this.
http://pisg.sourceforge.net/ I dunno if its any use to you or not.
This taken from the page

pisg is an IRC channel statics generator written in Perl, it creates statistics out from different logfile formats - it was written because IRCStats wasn't open source. So here's an open source/GPL'ed version to anyone interested. It's a funny thing for your IRC channel, and it's highly customizeable.

I realise you guys are a bit funny about clicking on any old link that may contain viri or other such nonsense, so i checked out the site and its ok.
Think i might get the program myself and maybe update my own irc stats.
