The data is changed to the new files automatically if both your old
.mp3 and your new .flac files was tagged with musicbrainz tags. If not,
you can removed the old statistics which is not used anymore in one of
the following ways. Independent of which choice you make its a good
idea to do a backup of the TrackStat data before.

Choice 1: 
Click on the "Remove unused statistics" button in the TrackStat
settings section in server settings in the web interface. This will
remove all statistics that does not have a corresponding track in
slimserver. 

Choice 2:
If your flac files has same name/structure as your old mp3 files but
with the .flac extension instead of .mp3 you can also do as follows:
1. Perform a backup of the TrackStat data
2. Open the backup file in a text editor and change the urls to the
.mp3 files inside the backup file so they point to the corresponding
.flac file instead. Replace all .mp3 to .flac should work.
3. Restore the changed backup file in TrackStat
4. Click on "Remove unused statistics" button in the TrackStat settings
secsion in server settings in the web interface. This will remove all
statistics on the old .mp3 files that no longer exists in slimserver.
