We're looking for a way to collect rudimentary (!) stats on the number
of incoming messages based on the names of lists.  The idea is to recommend
a USENET connection for some of the most active.  I can scan the LISTSERV
consoles for our local lists, but not lists that we don't host.
 
Something like:  LIST  #local_users  #number_messages/wk (or day, or mth)
 
Is there anyone who has had to do such a justification before, and found
a reasonably quick way to find this info?  Am I overlooking something
fairly obvious?  TIA for any information.
