The needed data is not available in the /admin/stats.xml file. Hence I
don't see an easy way to accomplish it using an xslt.
You might want to try and run an php-script (any other scripting
language will do too) from cron (doesn't need apache) and place it's
output into an plain html file in the archive directory.
