How difficult would it be to create widgets that show application-level stats like number of visitors on site or conversion rates (e.g. calculated from google analytics).
I'm tired of having to loging to google analytics, lulu.com, and gumroad in three different tabs....
Take a look at Dashing[0] by Shopify, it can be a base for what you want. There is already a Google Analytics plugin[1]. For Lulu.com, they are saying they are not accepting new developers[2] but if you have an API key, you may have luck building a widget for Dashing.
As of now it is a very simple application. I am going to now start planning the roadmap for this as a product. Things like an API, integration with web services, etc. I'd say a few months down the road, your requests will be very viable.

Very cool.

Dashing is gorgeous and surprisingly easy to write widgets for.. Hardest part was getting the layouts right.
