Right now I'm installing mysql and the cdindex server scripts on my
machine to make additions to the statistics.
I plan to add bitmaps that show stats a la these ones:
http://www.distributed.net/statistics/
At the end of this mail you see an example of how these stats could be
generated by running gnuplot.
E.g. cron might call up a script that generates .dat and .gnuplot
from database data and then runs gnuplot.
The HTML page would contain a link to the generated example.gif

This medal has two sides - I like credit too - on the other hand
it would be possible for third parties to find out about what CDs
you own, what taste you have etc.
