[Dspace-general] Studies of repository statistics' users?

I fell to wondering whether anyone has studied how statistics on
document repositories are used.  There are several dimensions to the
question:

o  Type of repo:  institutional, disciplinary, special-purpose

o  Type of user:  organizational administrator, departmental
   	   	  administrator, sysadmin, application manager,
		  programmer, contributor, curator, document user

o  More?

Lots of folks have lots of ideas about what should be stored, counted,
and presented, but do we know what different kinds of stat. users do
with all these data products, what they want but can't get, and what
they think they are learning?

Typically when a software vendor says that a product is "intuitive" he
means the exact opposite.
