hurr durr, i'm going to be an engineer and build buildings until i get 400k points...that's only what, 200k sentries? or even better, 100k of sentries and dispensers!
points don't really indicate much other than playtime...
kpd can lie (think those guys who have 7 kills and no deaths at the end of each round, because they never take risks)
win % can lie because of team stacking
really the most useful thing hlstats shows is the distribution of kills over weapons....so for instance, i have some stupid number of kills using a rocket. thus, you can figure out the proportion of kills w/ rocket to my playtime, and compare that to other folks, to determine whether my "average" (for lack of any word) skill level is higher or lower than theirs.
but that's a lot of work. wieks is just better than me, i'll live w/ that.
