I would appreciate an easy way to keep tabs on autovacuum's activity.
A stat table seems like a practical way to have this info readily

No need to keep values across dump/reloads, right?
This sounds more and more like a good idea. I don't think there's any
need to maintain across dump/reload and / or database restart either.
The DBA can elect to keep or discard stats data across DB restart, in
fact I think the default value for this GUC var was set to true for the
8.1 release.
I thought we were discussing a theoretical / not yet in existence GUC
var...
I assumed (perhaps incorrectly) that you were talking about maintaining
the data in the theoretical / not yet in existence autovacuum stats
table through database restart, the stats system already has a GUC var
that dictates whether or not it dumps it's data upon DB restart.
