Anyway I think thats better than say calc stats

Eeek, why?
We have a signal which updates the stats when they change. Why
would we want to get the stats every few seconds? Makes more
sense to just update the ones that changed and only request
the stats once.
Historical reasons: We added the signal in tracker 0.6.90, but nobody
updated the applet to use it :)
Good point Ivan, I forgot about that.
well it uses the IndexProgress signal to refresh stats (which means it
recalcs them every time which is often every few seconds)
That doesn't have any statistical information about the categories
though of course and it doesn't make sense to get the statistics every
few seconds for a few reasons:
1. We have to pause the indexer when we put a request through.
2. We already update when we load the dialog.
3. We now update when we get "finished" for each module.
4. We now have a refresh button to allow the user to explicitly refresh.
So I guess that needs changing then if you dont want to change things in
the daemon
The daemon was broken I found out today. The signal we were using was
not the same as the signal we publish in the .xml DBus introspection
file. I have fixed this now.
