Given the recent post about the BF3 hacker who described how he was separating the closet Hackers from the real good players. (see Link)

You'd think someone would invest in some white hat software that empowered the community base. Something that could see enemy realtime stats. Like.. Dude run's past you a little 115% pops up at his feet, or.. maybe a guy is sniping you with an MCG at 700 yards, and it gives the shots/sec and number of hits/ misses. Or creates a background log of this that can be pulled up at a later time.
The primary difficult part I see about this would be giving tools to see other people's stats without giving them an advantage in game play. There are far more players than GMs out in the world, and the "bubble" netcode really makes it hard for devs to see anything realistic unless they witness it themself.
This idea is very early in my mind and not quite developed; which is why I brought it to the community.
