Comment (by karsten):

 I like the idea of tracking totals and only giving out aggregate per-
 country details.  But I see two drawbacks in your suggestion: 1) the
 number of countries contributing to statistics can be really long (see the
 `bridge-ips` line in the ticket description above); and more importantly,
 2) I don't see how Atlas or Globe would visualize these per-country data.

 Based on your suggestion, how about we provide per-country fractions over
 the entire time period?  We would probably want to limit the list of
 countries to the top-10 or so and include the rest as "other".  We could
 do the same for per-transport and per-IP-version fractions.  Using your
 example data, that could be:

 {{{
 Total: 2, 1, 2, 8, 1
 By-Country: cn=0.50, ir=0.43, sy=0.07
 By-Transport: <OR>=0.50, obfs3=0.35, obfs2=0.15
 By-Version: v4=1.00
 }}}

 Atlas and Globe could visualize these data in a) a single time plot per
 time period and b) tables or pie charts with fractions per country,
 transport, or IP version.

 Would that be useful?
