Could we get some of the stats pages available as XML feeds? Probably not too hard to set up, and could be done without a login, allowing those of us who want to build custom stats pages (like Roman's most excellent daily averaage charts) to automate the data pulls without having to pick and choose off of the formatted results?

In answer to Stan's question in chat, the solution could be done on two primary pages
One page should be similar to http://swle.yarold.eu/dynasty.php but contain many more fields (from dynasty details page) plus maybe more information for gained/given (just add up numbers that would show on dynasty page):
Example code for proposed swle.yarold.eu/dynasty.xml (available without login):
Other page should be similar to http://swle.yarold.eu/memberlist.php but contain many more fields (from profile). If there are too many members for a single page, it could probably be limited to show only active members, or perhaps only members in dynasties, or perhaps only members with at least 1 click yesterday or today.
Example code for proposed swle.yarold.eu/memberlist.xml (available without login):
