stats arguments
SSC can output lots of statistical information about the site being analysed, although by default it outputs nothing.
Use stats.selected to output a small subset of statistical data, and stats.all to output everything. Use stats.summary to output grand totals, and stats.page to output information on each page read. The other switches allow you to precisely specify what data you want to see. If you want to output the data to a file, use stats.export. If you select both stats.page and stats.all, be prepared for rather a lot of output.
