How can I show statistics on labels used in Confluence?

Question

We are looking at storing system information in Confluence, and the idea is to use labels as a way to "classify" the systems in various ways. Now, we would also like to be able to have some kind of dashboard where we could show statistics on the various labels. Pie/bar charts etc.

Is that something that can be done...? The 'Chart' macro is simply manual, and 'Popular Labels' can only show a tag cloud or list, no graphs. Haven't been able to find anything in the googleverse or Marketplace so far, so any tips, tricks and suggestions are welcome...

After testing this macro, we were getting higher label counts than expected. It turns out there are three possible states for a content object (Current, Deleted, and Draft). We had a developer of ours update the macro to only include "Current" pages. Here is the updated macro: ## @Param Label:title=Label|type=string|required=true|desc=Please enter a label to count #set ( $containerManagerClass=$content.class.forName('com.atlassian.spring.container.ContainerManager') ) #set ( $getInstanceMethod=$containerManagerClass.getDeclaredMethod('getInstance',null) ) #set ( $containerManager=$getInstanceMethod.invoke(null,null) ) #set ( $containerContext=$containerManager.containerContext ) #set ( $labelManager = $containerContext.getComponent('labelManager') ) #set ( $requestedLabel = $labelManager.getLabel($paramLabel) ) #set ($allContent = $labelManager.getAllContentForLabel(0,500,$requestedLabel) ) ##Count: $allContent.getCount()
#set ($listContent = $allContent.getList() ) #set ($tmpCount = 0) #foreach ($theContent in $listContent) ## $tmpCount | $theContent.getDisplayTitle()
#if ($theContent.isCurrent() ) #set ($tmpCount = $tmpCount +1) #end #end $tmpCount

Is it possible to limit the number of labels to one space?
