What types of kill related stats would be ideal to provide in chart format? I'm considering making drill down charts to visualize kills and losses over a given time period by number of ships, ship types and values at various aggregation levels: alliance, corporation, character and yearly, monthly and daily time granularities.

Making progress with putting together a python web app that utilizes the pykb platform I built. Next steps are adding additional navigation buttons and pages for listings of kills / losses by character / corp / alliance along with a search box. An analysis page will include charts based on the above and whatever additional ideas you may have.

Here's a quick look at where I am at this point:
Sample Kill Log
Sample Kill Report

I'll put up a web site running the app as a demo once it's ready, allowing those interested to provide their API keys for updates. No plans to actually make it a centralized kill mail hub like EVE-Kill.net or Battleclinic presently as I don't have time to manage that; this is simply an alternative corp or alliance killboard that can fetch kill mails from EDK based boards and the EVE API. This app is written in Python using the Flask micro-framework and the Mako templating engine along with jQuery and the Blueprint CSS framework and the pykb platform. For the web site I'll use uwsgi and Nginx with Varnish and PostgreSQL. The database engine can be any relational database as there's no hard coded SQL in the Python source.
