Reporting UUCP accounting statistics?

I'm running a UUCP testbed to demonstrate the viability of free home UUCP
access, and have found this tried-and-true standard to reach far beyond
its original intent of "unix-to-unix" networking (it now reaches DOS, OS/2,
Linux, Macintosh, Amiga, you name it).

To get a better feel for how well the system is working over time, I'd like
to create a weekly statistical report for each of the connections into my
system (Linux running Taylor UUCP v1.04).  This would report on things
like number of connect attempts, number of successful connects, maximum
interval between polls, average data transfer rate, errors, total connect
time, and that sort of thing.  Since the site appears to be headed toward
many dozens or perhaps hundreds of users, having this sort of information
would be extremely helpful in making future plans.

If you know where I might find shell scripts and/or software for reporting
this information (either from BNU logs or Taylor logs) in a fashion which
is far less verbose than the logs created by UUCP itself, please post or
email me--I figure this must be something which already exists and I'd
be reinventing the wheel doing it myself.

Thanks!  (Oh, and if you're in New England or anywhere else and want to join
the home-UUCP test, just ask.)
