You can, of course, do this by writing a plugin. Plugins can do more-or-less anything to any group of books.

Templates operate book-by-book, as do searches. You can't do things like "Find the book in each series that has the most tags" as that requires comparing book to book. (Although you can count tags and sort, etc.)
I just wasn't sure if there was already a plugin that might be adapted in some way, or if not, if someone might have written/posted some code that could be executed calibre-debug with the "-e" or "-c" options that might do this or at least some part of it.
