 There is no way to avoid enumerating items in auth.spec in current Stats
 design.
 I think we can solve it with some kind of auto-generation of spec file and
 QRQTypeToQRCounterType. However, current implementation of libdns++ lacks
 some rrtypes. I'd like to do it in another ticket with design
 consideration if possible, this ticket lives quite longer.

 Thanks,
