In answer;
The SearchLogger plugin does store the raw search info, but does not track key phrases month to month.
Most plugins show a snapshot or the sum of all data collected.
I'd like to have a single plugin to keep general stats where a webmaster can look at site activity over a period of time, see it in bar graph form, and also analyze what categories and links over time are more popular and have changes in activity.
I can not get this at present even by combining the plugins that you mention.
Some of this information could be extracted from the databases, but click stats on individual links are not kept.
Most of the plugins available do not keep HISTORICAL data.
For example, UM, which is a well written and extremely comprehensive solution for tracking and rewarding individual users, does not track users joined per month, for example. It stores and displays detailed info on individual users.
Toolbox
Very useful, mainly for its repair and spider functions. Nothing historical, though. I have never gotten the "Latest Searches" function to work, so do not know what it will show. I may have the wrong version of "SearchLogger" installed. What version is required?
Other thoughts:
Your own ExtraStats plugin, if it were to break down the stats by category would be close.
A bar graph showing the top 5 categories each month, with multiple months visible, would be useful.
