Statistics enhancement.

I picked ADMINISTRATION as the project. Not sure if it really has to do with STATISTICS FILTERING or STATISTICS TRENDS and there is not a project for NODE.COUNTER.

Seems to me that based on threads like this one, http://drupal.org/node/67974, there should be some small enhancements to the Home>administer>logs page. and or the Home>administer>settings statistics page.

1) A button to reset the stats (truncate the access_log) and to reset the counters (truncate node_counter).
2) A built in option in the statistics.module that can be controlled by a setting on the Home>administer>logs page that allows the administrator the option of excluding user=1 from incrementing any type of logging or statistics count.
3) Gravy on this would be a way to enter a few IP ranges that can also be excluded from incrementing any statistics and logging.

I am aware of the distinction of logging and tracking statistics, and of incrementing based on cache or by views, but these are all irrelevent to this feature request. It is still a very common need to at least make sure the webmaster is not racking up huge counts that others who see the stats will misinterpret.

Even a better link to help, or the explanation of manually truncating as part of the admin page instructions would be an improvement.

Thanks.
