One easy way might be to utilise the Textfile Collector, which is part of the Node Exporter, and allows you to expose files on your system for collection by Prometheus.
In this case, you would need to write some kind of script that reads your statistics files, then spits out textfile that contains the metrics, and Node exporter will then serve them. You can find example scripts here <https://github.com/prometheus-community/node-exporter-textfile-collector-scripts> that will give you examples of how to create the text file.
