Yes, make sure you've taken a backup of the TrackStat data from inside
TrackStat settings page in SqueezeCenter 7.3 before you upgrade. I think
the backup has always worked, but just to be sure you can open the
backup file in a text editor to verify that it seems to contain data.

After the upgrade you just point the "Backup file" parameter in
TrackStat settings to the full path to your backup file and hit the
"Restore from file" button. Look in the server.log file, you will get
one message when it starts the restore and a second message when it has
finished. The restore runs in background and can take some time, in my
small 3000 tracks library it took a few minutes.

Also, please note that depending on how good the Squeezebox Server
upgrade works it may not even discard your old TrackStat data. However,
in my case on Ubuntu linux, I lost all settings and the database
contents in the automatic upgrade. It didn't delete the files, so I was
able to copy all old setting files manually to restore my settings.
