Huh indeed. I remember hacking it in myself ...!

I just closed the ticket window but I distinctly remember reading something about users opting in to provide the information. Maybe that applied only to ports not handled by the bots.
The one advantage of letting bots define this information is that you'd get OS version specific counts which is probably necessary anyway. But I don't really like the idea that each `port build` would query a remote server; I'd much prefer for the database to be installed locally and updated through `port selfupdate`.
