I would love to see weekcount, monthcount, and yearcount added to the Statistics module (in node_counter table) in addition the the current totalcount and daycount.

weekcount, monthcount, and yearcount are arguably more significant statistics for a large site than daycount, and this added functionality seems quite reasonable for a dedicate statistics module (and would not take very much effort to add).

Why not rely on third-party contrib modules like Statistics Granularity → or Statistics Counter → for this functionality? Because any kind of third-party implementation like that which extends the node_counter table requires an extra trip to the db for every single page request, which is extremely redundant, and a significant performance hit, since the node_counter table can easily grow huge.

The only other option to avoid this kind of redundancy is to create a contrib module designed to completely replace the statistics module, but this itself becomes extremely redundant and counter productive when we already have a statistics module in core.
