Yes, StatHat works great with Status Board. We were an original data source for them when they launched. We run an iPad with Status Board in the office showing our internal StatHat stats 24/7. One small bonus for those of you with old iPads collecting dust: Status Board works on the original iPad.

@ZackShapiro just as @ffumarola quoted...simple.

@ffumarola there are a plethora of benefits to StatHat, but here are a few: you don't have to worry about hosting an open source solution, we have manual and automatic alerts, email reports, embeddable charts, an iPhone app, and as of about 5 minutes ago, 30-day forecasts for all your stats.

As promised in my first comment, this is the feature we launched today: http://www.stathat.com/trends 30-day forecasts for all your stats

@jpatil You can create any kind of stat you want: user created, number of paid users, number of messages sent from females to males, api calls, load averages, page views, number of seconds iPhone app was active, etc. Any number or event in your application/system. It is all custom stats, there are no default stats.

I'm the founder of StatHat. Let me know if you have any questions about the product. We have a big new feature launching this week. I'll add a comment here when it is deployed.
