Hi all,

I'd very much like to do so, but the answer is that it's not that easy.
As we don't have an API to access translation reporting data from
Launchpad we are using a workaround: use a raw data export directly from
the Launchpad database in text files. Then the script to produce the
distro statistics uses this data and creates the graph.

The problem is that we don't have a way to get the data from the
production database, so we get data from the staging database
(translations.staging.launchpad.net). The staging database is synced
from time to time, but it lags behind the production database, which is
why you see old stats.

We've got a request ticket in progress to get the data daily from the
production database, but it might still take some days to process.

That said, this will just be a workaround. The proper solution would be
to be able to access the data through the API, but the API is not
available yet. If anyone would like to contribute and add to the
excellent work Adi did there in the past already, feel free to have a
look at the spec:

Regards,
David.
