I removed ~/.julia/Stats/ and called Pkg.update() which successfully executed. This resulted in Stats/ being downloaded again. So I checked the ~/.julia/REQUIRE file and changed the line containing Stats to StatsBase. After calling Pkg.update() again, Stats was removed and everything seems to work with StatsBase.
This thread helped me figure out what to do so hopefully this helps someone else.
