Comment (by stumpc5):

 Here is another problem to fix, but I rather think this is a problem in
 !FindStat since there is neither a {{{JSON}}} json file for {{{St000288}}}
 nor a {{{pdf}}}:
 {{{
 sage: findstat({l:l.length() for l in Partitions(4)})
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 IOError                                   Traceback (most recent call
 last)
 ...
 IOError: FindStat did not answer with a json response: St000288 is not a
 FindStat statistic identifier.
 }}}

 One quick idea: what about having a method {{{findstat.collections}}} such
 that
 {{{
 sage: findstat.collections()
 {'Binary words': 'not supported',
  'Dyck paths': 'supported',
  'Permutations': 'supported'}
 }}}
 and if an unsupported collection is used, we throw an error like the one
 you have.
 Good:
 {{{
 sage: findstat(289)
 ValueError: Could not find FindStat collection for Binary words.
 }}}
 but unclear what to do in the above situation where a binary word
 statistic is found and we cannot throw an error...
