I don't see any advantage to this, and according to the comments at the top of the struct, thread_param is to transfer params to a thread and thread_stat is for statistics. This is unnecessary churn, unless you can convince me otherwise. I was worried that your JSON changes would rely on this being changed, but as far as I can see, they do not!
