Exactly -- what I want more of is the jitter etc data.  That's  
interesting.  Stratum is too misunderstood to be of value by itself.

One of my plans is to, for the servers that'll give out the data,  
track which upstream servers is being used (partially to detect if a  
server in the pool is configured with pool.ntp.org servers) and the  
data values you mention.

As you noticed you have the permission bit in the system to get you a  
list of servers.   I can also make you a dump of the servers and  
log_scores tables with the pool monitoring data from the last ~4  
months if you want to see if the monitoring system generally find  
stratum 1 servers to be more accurate.  I suspect that within the  
inaccuracy of the monitoring system they aren't any better...
