Statistics for Empire/Party Poker |

I'm hoping this will not be considered spam, as I'm not selling anything, although I do ask for some help.
I have made a program that parses the log files from Empire/Party Texas Hold'em games, and inserts the result into the text file the poker client uses for notes (Notes.txt). The data I save for each user look like this:
| Code: | 2 9 2 0.307 $0.387
SC:1 LP: MP:2 HP:3
Seen: 108 hands, 19 cards
Check Call Raise
Tot Fold|I F Ca R |I F |I F Ca R
P:100 62|08 00 00 00|37 00|01 0 0 0
F:037 05|87 25 15 02|15 00|07 0 0 2
T:025 10|57 10 14 03|14 00|03 0 3 0
R:020 00|40 13 09 09|27 00|04 0 0 0

The first three numbers are the cards that has been seen - bad hands (rash), mediocre hands (Q+ and rash) and good hands (AJ, KQ or better).
Then it is expected value, which is calculated by comparing hands seen to https://www.pokerroom.com/main/page/games/evstats/expValue
Last number is avg. earnings per hand played.
Second line is number of Suite Connectors (lowest card must be at least 5), Low Pairs, Middle Pairs (at least 8) and High Pairs (At least Q).
Seen is total hands, cards is number of cards shown (in log).
The last block is actions at each stage, Preflop, Flop, Turn and River in percent. Tot is total percent of all hands, the rest is related to that stage. The first line (Check, Call, Raise) is the first hand. Below letters describe initial and second action. I is Initial, F is fold, Ca is Call and R is Raise.
I'm thinking of a community approach to make this as useful as possible. If you send me log files, I will include them in my calculations, and in return send you updated Notes.txt files.
I am also open for suggestions for other kinds of statistics that can be added. I just thought this up thursday, and wrote the program this weekend, so I currently only have some data for $0.5/$1 games. I would like to have a different set of note files for each game.
The larges drawback with my approach is that your old notes will be overwritten if you copy my Notes file over your old.
Anyway, anyone what to help out? To get log files, all you have to do is open at least one table, and copy the files that ends with hhf from the Empire/Party Poker directory to a different directory before you close the client (they will be deleted when you do). You do not have to participate in the game. You can contact me at pstats at gmail dot com (replace at and dot). I would like to get questions about the program in this thread.

I'll look at this more when I've had a good day's sleep.
What are your plans for all the data?

My initial plan was to use them to generate the kinds of statistics I showed, and give them to those who contribute. Later I plan on doing some general datamining, to see what styles are most effective in what games, against which kind of people, and such.
I could of course also just be a hub for hhf file, so that when people contribute hhf files, they get more data in return. This would be useful for those who use Poker-Spy and such.
I've been thinking about setting up a web interface, where you for instance can select what kind of game(s) you want data for, and how many players should be active, and then you get just those hands.
For this to be of any use, I'll need more data than I can collect alone, though. I have changed the EV and money numbers to percentile, and almost everyone in the top percentile only have a few games.
For instance one guy in the 98th percentile moneywise I have 10 hands for. He had seen 9 games to the end, and won 6 of those. Here are his 9 shown hands:
mednight shows   a straight, nine to king.
mednight wins $15 from the main pot with a straight, nine to king.
mednight shows   a pair of queens.
(lost)
mednight shows   a straight, six to ten.
mednight wins $7.75 from the main pot with a straight, six to ten.
mednight shows   a pair of threes.
(lost)
mednight shows  two pairs, tens and fours.
mednight wins $5 from the main pot with two pairs, tens and fours.
mednight shows  two pairs, sixes and threes.
mednight wins $6.75 from the main pot with two pairs, sixes and threes.
mednight doesn't show   a pair of twos.
(lost)
mednight shows   two pairs, jacks and twos.
mednight wins $5.75 from the main pot with two pairs, jacks and twos.
mednight shows   two pairs, queens and twos.
mednight wins $6.5 from the main pot with two pairs, queens and twos.
These where 8-10 handed games on a $0.5/$1 table.
