Calculate overall percentages of web browsing #22

This is a feature request, to add the ability to see what percentage of my overall web traffic is IPv6 vs IPv4 since installing the plugin.

You could aggregate visits into a simple database, perhaps just the number of IPv4 requests and the number of IPv6 requests. Then instead of seeing overall, you could break it down by month or day, etc.

The IPvFoo codebase is centered on collating real-time data, and then throwing it away as quickly as possible. History/Analytics is an orthogonal problem, which could be implemented as a separate extension with minimal opportunity for code reuse.

Your idea is entirely reasonable, but I consider it to be beyond the scope of this project, and have no interest in implementing it.
