How do you plan on displaying these stats? through a webpage? You will need a database and such alot more than just the game files thats for sure. And you would need to run them off your computer. Do you play on the same computer?

*linux output helpful?*
You: ./My_program

Well the problem is that hlstats is a webbased program. Its not a game mod. It works with the game but is not apart of the game. It requires a MySQL database and typically a webfront end to configure basically your going to need alot more resources then you have now. I would recommend something "lighter" perhaps a script or something that works from in game google some stats modules and make sure you look up there requirements.

Not necessarily I use a tool called xampp Its great installs very easily and comes with apache ftp and MySQL all run as services on your computer. If you still feel like its too much cause there is alot involved with setting something liek that up. You can go the latter route which you can visit eventscripts website they have tons of ranking modules you can install it only requires eventscripts 2.0 again we can show you how to install that also.

Psychostats is a very good system, although the problem is that without a massive amount of fiddling, neither HLstatsX:CE nor Psychostats will run correctly on windows (although the psychostats site has a fairly good guide).
The only problem with Psychostats is that there isn't many good plugins for rank, i.e. you can only see stats on the webpage. Although I do know someone that is providing free psychostats services. Although you wouldn't have in-game rank, just the web page stats.
