Number of Hosts Visible in Main Window
 

Of all the statistics available in the stat window, the only one that I miss not having in the main window is the number of hosts. Back in the old days before ultrapeers, the top bar had host, file, and size numbers. Since the host number is smaller, it is much easier to deal with, and likely more accurate.

The main point would be not to intiate a search exactly when Limewire is making new connections, or to stop a search when you see that most connections have been broken, since either one will yield a minimal number of hits.

Of course one can keep the stat window open, but it does take up a bit of screen real estate. A small box underneath the "files shared" green light would be just the thing.
