 I don't think this would be too difficult, but I don't think it will be a
 very interesting graph. Maybe some people will find it useful.

 now.  If we want that data, we'll have to specify a file format.

 Right, we'll need to specify a format, and we'll also need to decide what
 is contained in a sanitized bridgedb log. After we decide on that then we
 should be able to provide metrics such as the number of total requests,
 requests for specific a transport, requests using a specific language,
 etc, which may help us help the users.
