Since user stats have been disabled, it's good to see selective scraping.
An average of characters/post would be good. Same thing with posts/day. If we target users with typical spammer statistics, we can gather a list of them.
I've been reporting tons of spammers however a high number of the most egregious one-liner burst-posting spam megathread posters have slipped through my fingers.
How about "average time between posts"?
Yes, I already have the ability to do average char count. When you say posts/day, what timeframe would you like for that? I could do from when the account first posted but I'm assuming you would like a more recent value, maybe for the past month or the past week? I'm working on average time between posts right now, probably going to put the timeframe at about 1 week or so and then plot posts that are less than 30 minutes apart, etc.
I would be interested to see What Topics are most active for every Bitcointalk rank in separate.
Can you find what user has the most posts without receiving a single merit? Don't count airdropped merits.
I will not be doing merit related things as Loyce already has that covered. I am interested in only focusing on user related stats (excluding merit), so things I am able to derive from post history / profile page.
