See, one of the things HLstats & HLStatsX both have over PS is the
ability to show in game the real time stats of your account on that
server. Yes, in PS you can see your current stats in game as well, but
they are "stale" until the next time the host does a PS run. Unless PS
has converted over to a real time "strategy" as it were, that is one of
the major differences between the 2.

Aside from that, they both seem to incorporate much of the same
features, save for whatever community stuff has been included in PS.

Honestly, when I ran stats, I ran both HLStatsX and PS, to give players
their choice of how to view their info, as some players are die hard PS
fans and vice versa ... I am admittedly more of a hlstats fan then PS
(personal preference) but I do think they're BOTH fine pieces of
software.

As it was said before, there's no need to re-invent the wheel - so how
about coming up with a really slick way to integrate either stats
package into a clansites blog/website/forum account or something to that
effect?

PsychoStats is customizable in so many ways.  Storm has really worked to
allow community ideas and to incorporate some into his release packages.

HLStatsX was a pretty good second in my book until Tobi got greedy.  Now
it
does not and cannot hold a candle to PS.

I agree with chillicane, no need to start from scratch when you can
enhance
an existing platform.

My 2 cents, i run phsychostats and i find it to be very feature complete
for
TF2 and of course can be extended if particular functionality is needed.

These projects, HLstatsX, Psychostats etc, have lots of project members
and
are still very active projects, so if i was personally thinking about
adding
another to the mix i would have to find a major flaw or missing feature
set
in an existing project before attempting this rather large undertaking.

Perhaps check out what can be done to customize/extend existing
solutions?
As my mentors always used to tell me, 'no need to reinvent the wheel,
just
make it better!'
