Reading the Privacy policy I dont see this would violate the policy as it specifically doesnt record private data(ip, username), in my reading of http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Privacy_policy#Purpose_of_the_collection_of_private_informationthe policy specifically says " *The Foundation limits the collection of personally identifiable user data to purposes which serve the well-being of its projects...*." then includes some examples like public accountability of the projects, and site statistics(raw data is not made public). This the tool appears to be within those bounds of the privacy policy.
