My cobbled together ones (and some other Mailman bits, I've still not
put all my bin-dirs in one place...) are at

http://code.amyl.org.uk/adam/mailman-scripts/debian/
(warning, that's my own box, so waits until others are fixed,
usually; if unavailable, try again a bit later on.)

probably most useful (if, indeed, useful at all) are:
    list-members-count
    list-stats
    mailman-subs-count
    mlist-stats

They do the jobs I wrote them for ;)

Each does something slightly different, and there are almost certainly
more elegant ways to do things. Most should just need changes to the
variables to Just Work For You.

Patches welcome...
