Yes. look at the post log.
Here is a stats script which does some of what you asked. I wrote it
about 3 years ago...
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Useful_scripts]$ more mm_stats
#! /bin/bash
# Run monthly stats on Meeting maker logs
# - top 10 users of each list
# - Number of attempted posts (per list)
# - Total bytes sent (per list)

# Mailman's log file to be examined for stats
#POST=/home/mailman/logs/post
#
# Run this script the first of the month right after the
# the log files have been rotated. The log file for the
# previous month will then be post.1
POST=/var/log/mailman/post.1
# create temp file to collect stats
TMPFILE=`mktemp /tmp/mm_stats.XXXXXX` || exit 1
LIST="`/var/mailman/bin/list_lists |awk '{print $1}' |sed -n '2,$p'`"
for i in $LIST
do
echo "Stats from local Mailman list: $i" > $TMPFILE
echo " " >> $TMPFILE
