Subject: PGN analysis tool suggestion (related to Elo calculation)

It would be nice to know if a particular opening position underperforms or
overperforms.

By that I mean, given the Elo of the players that reached the position, and the
Elo of the opponents that reached the position, did the position for the side to
move exceed expectations or fall below expectations?

I don't think it is as simple as taking the average Elo of the side to move and
the average Elo of the opponent side, and then examining the win percentage and
seeing if it meets the Elo estimate within error bounds.

I guess that we would have to examine all of the pairs.

Does any statisical genius have a solid model for this analysis?
