Based on the backup function, I wrote a script that calculates the total number of Journal entries (among all users) for each activity. My idea was to infer the favorite activities.. but I need some heuristics because counting created entries alone is kind of misleading. Anyways, if its of any use the code is here: http://git.paraguayeduca.org/gitweb/users/rgs/xs-scripts.git?js=1 (the script name is get-journal-stats.py). Cheers, Raúl P.S.: I feed the output of the script to another (Ruby) script that gives me nice pie charts.. but you could do that easily with almost anything (gnuplot, oocalc, etc.).
