I'm not really sure, it just makes me uncomfortable to see.

I don't mind seeing my stats, in fact I want to see them, but perhaps they could be on a separate page from the main dashboard. One motivation for this is when I view my dashboard on my phone browser, the two columns (projects and stats) side by side are so narrow that I can't read them, so in that situation just the project column would be better with the stats elsewhere (on another page or perhaps below the projects). Not a big deal, but it'd be a nice little enhancement.
