Comment (by naokikambe):

 Replying to [comment:8 vorner]:
 > I had a look and I think it is a very bad idea to examine the
 Boss/components to count instances of one program. It seems fragile and
 could be out of sync. I think we'll need the notifications pretty soon,
 but for now, could modules announce themselfs when they appear?
 This issue isn't directly related to statistics tasks, I think. If we need
 to fundamentally restructure this issue, we don't have enough time until
 the end of Sep.. So how about this workaround?
 ''show_processes'' command of Boss can easily return with address
 information of each module. For example,
 {{{
 #!js
 > Boss show_processes
 [
     [
         20056,
         "Socket creator",
         null
     ],
     [
         20057,
         "msgq",
         null
     ],
     [
         20058,
         "cfgmgr",
         "ConfigManager"
     ],
     [
         20059,
         "b10-cmdctl",
         "Cmdctl"
     ],
     [
         20061,
         "b10-auth",
         "Auth"
     ],
     [
         20062,
         "b10-stats",
         "Stats"
     ],
     [
         20103,
         "b10-auth-2",
         "Auth"
     ]
 ]
 }}}
 In this example, there are two Auth instances. It could be very easy
 revision. Can Stats request boss this command for counting instances of
 same module? Does that make sense for you?
