I completely agree that this setup is far too difficult to reasonably expect anyone to implement it. You're correct that we could run a single StatsD daemon and have quite a few nodes sending statistics to it - this is really what StatsD was designed for - sampling small amounts of stats from high volume systems. There would be an issue of trust, however - StatsD was also only really designed to be run inside of highly secure infrastructure where you trust all of the machines that are talking to it.
