There might be something in the old joneslib.mc library:

It's quite old and will no doubt have a compilation issue or two with 
all the changes since it was first shared in the late '90s, mostly from 
functions there that have since been added to the engine.  But IIRC 
there's plenty of statistical juiciness there worth exploring beyond the 
ones now in engine.

If you find it useful enough to merit the quick cleanup, please consider 
posting the updated version to RevOnline.
