If I may be so bold as to disagree, I think using negative values is
counter-intuitive to mean increment.

We send structured data. Is it problem to include a flag with the message,
saying the whole bunch of statistics is an incremental update instead of
overwrite of the old values? I think that would be cleaner.

With regards
