I think that it would be interesting to do more statistics like this, especially to see if the different programs score very differently or very similar (which could be a good indication of what openings work or don't work in compchess) Maybe someone could make a program ala' elostat which could calibrate from a pgn file all the statistics needed from all the individual entries, based on openings and their sucess rate + a bunch of other obvious and less obvious functions.
