Doesn't stats_freq() set an interval to log stats to syslog already?

Description: The period between two STATS messages in seconds. STATS are log messages sent by syslog-ng, containing statistics about dropped log messages. Set to 0to disable the STATS messages.

So 
internal_src -> format > elasticsearch -> syslog-ng_stats index ?

I have a perl script that collects some stats and logs them to syslog again. The syslog stream gets sent to ES, so they end up there, but as a syslog line, not a specific statistic item for things like grafana.

Hi,

  Looked around for a few hours and didn't see anything.

Has anyone worked on sending syslog-ng stats to ES ?
I see several ways I could but wondering if anyone has already. A push method directly from syslog-ng would be awesome.
