I agree this is a valid question; let's discuss that before I hand out
any statistics data. However, there are other parts of the database besides
the schema that are rather hard to setup (e.g. the database of ports).

The plus of information you'd get from a dump that you currently cannot see
on the web interface is the connection between a user's UUID and the ports
he installed. You cannot drill down on users in the current web interface,
even if the data allows doing that.
I think however, that's a feature we don't want to support, and maybe I
should not be handing out the statistics data (you can generate some for
your own local tests) but just the data from the categories and ports
tables.
