Just for reference, I've found the commit which added the schema 3.5
years ago:
6f6bb380e ("MEDIUM: stats: Add show json schema")
And the discussion around this was in this thread:
https://www.mail-archive.com/haproxy@formilux.org/msg23173.html
The thread is quite long with multiple proposals, you may be
interested in the discussions there.
In the mean time, if anyone (still) uses it, it would be nice to know :-)
Cheers,
Willy
