Comment(by karsten):

 Sounds doable.  Instead of number of refills we could even publish total
 seconds of a 15-minute interval that a bucket was empty.  That's similar
 to the TB_EMPTY controller events specified in
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/blob/HEAD:/proposals/218-usage-
 controller-events.txt proposal 218].  But number of refills would be
 doable, too.

 Would this be global read/write buckets or relay read/write buckets?
 Buckets of single OR connections wouldn't matter here, I guess?

 I can hack on this.  But should we finish proposal 218 and get some
 results from running it in a private Tor network before adding new
 statistics like the one described here?  Most of proposal 218 is already
 implemented, and I hope to get it merged early into 0.2.5.x.
