Hm... I think this could actually be implemented quite easily using the
existing toolkit.

We can create an SQLite zone to store the statistics. We can then create
a statistics process like Fuijiwara-san made, but update the SQLite data
source instead of an XML file.

And... that's it, I think. It would have to be "start time" instead of
"uptime" unless we wanted to update the zone periodically just to
increase the timestamp, but that seems reasonable to me.

Am I missing an implementation detail or something else?
