This stuff is not yet possible.  I have had a few more questions in the 
direction of DONE statistics.  Myself, I am not really convinced how 
useful this would be, mainly because different TODO items can mean 
totally different amounts of work.
But I am putting it on my list and will give it some more thinking.  If 
other people have thoughs about it, please share them.
