Statistics can create a significant server workload. It's probably best to restrict statistics to logged in users.

Add a config checker to warn if statistics script is not restricted.

Also, if LoginManager is not set to TemplateLogin, it is critical that the AuthScripts setting agree with the list of scripts protected in the web server configuration. Add a warning - "Verify that the AuthScripts setting is consistent with the alternative protection mechanism, such as the Apache FilesMatch or LocationMatch setting.

It doesn't make sense to warn about a configuration that is not default. Reopening to add statistics to the list of default protected scripts. Also we are missing compareauth so I'll add that here as well. And to continue with task abuse, adding a list of the open scripts as a note under AuthScripts - makes it easier to see what's missing.
