Is there any way to disclude the Faq-O-Matic in the stats, since it
will always have a 100% original content rating?

That's a good idea, though the FOM hasn't really had a 100% content
rating, since until recently its stats have been grouped with mine.
I recently changed my posting addresses, using a different address
for the FAQ, so now our stats will be separate (unfortunately lowering
my OCR% dramatically).

Certainly News::Scan can, but I've no idea how easy this is to configure
in GroupStat.

From the News::Scan man page:

CONSTRUCTOR
....
Exclude
The value of this option should be a reference to an array containing
regular expressions that accept email addresses of posters whose
articles you wish to ignore.
....
METHODS
....
exclude ( [ EXCLUSION-REGEX-ARRAYREF ] )


Thanks to WW for providing the stats.
