Personally I don't think that would encourage positive things for the game, quite the opposite actually.
Since when do statistics influence the game positively in any way? Statistics have nothing whatsoever to do with the quality of the game....
@Maxipimpf In my opinion most statistics are neutral, some are likely to have a positive impact. A few have a very negative impact. Adding things that you know from the start belongs to the last category doesn't seem responsible.
To expand on Pleu's argument, It would encourage the placement of caches just to get the statistic. And that might mean low quality caches. Yes, I know, there are other cache owner stats that are like this - the different types and sizes in the belt system, for example. It's a fine line. Generally I am with Pleu - Avoid creating more cache owner stats.
With a 1000+ active caches, i like any statistics that could help me in managing or to know which one is at the best place or appreciated (favorite, Wilson). I do a lot of background stat with project-GC and GSAK and I must confess that i try now to have a full year with placement for the fun. Though, I disagree to encourage to place caches just for stats. Anyway after few 'need maintenance' these kind of caches disappear or kind of owners abandon placement.
