If anybody cares to work on this plugin further, my suggestions:

Plugin has multiple non-algorithm sources: Goodreads, Skoob. Skoob is interesting because it seems to match Amazon's Kindle page count, for me in English, despite the language difference.

Multiple algorithmic calculations: ADE, APNX, Calibre.

All these go into a single column. I'd like to see a way to define multiple.
I have considered that. Change the plugin so that each possible statistic is stored separately. But, it is enough work, that I'm not that interested in doing it. Or ran out of other things to do. And, honestly, only one of each number is really needed.

Also it was unclear to me what the "other" and "statistics" tabs meant. Now I see one is an algorithm, and one is from a site. Maybe change those tabs to "algorithm" and "site".
Half of the "Other" tab is not site related. Changing it would obscure that fact.

And for the record, original creator of this plugin stopped maintaining them some years ago. I have been maintaining and extending it since as it is a plugin I use frequently. But, if someone else wants to do some work on it, I am very happy for them do so.
