The numbers are not really relevant. We had ever a huge backlog of issues that will never be fixed and where many of them are probably obsolete or invalid today. You can also delete them all and can start from scratch (by the way that would have been my preferred solution for AOO after we migrated to Apache). New issues in the last year (maybe last 2) are more valid and deserves more attention because they are coming from real users who are using probably one of the newer releases. But what do you expect of these numbers what you don't already know? You can run more statistic but the numbers won't become better. More important is to think about a solution to really work on these issues and reduce the number.
