It's pretty simple, the data consists of users, connections and  
nodes. Since the database tables are fully normalized (3rd normal  
form), it's pretty straightfoward to mix the data.

Here are some of the data fields.
users data fields (interesting for stats) are : a unique user id  
(hash based), account status (validated, not validated, denied ... ),  
username
nodes data fields : node id, name, last heartime timestamp, creation  
date, longitude, latitude
connections : connection id (unique hash-based), node id, user id,  
start timestamp, end timestamp, incoming bytes, outgoing bytes

Of course, we store some more data for management purposes, but  
that's what might interested researchers.

Feel free to ask more questions about it ...
