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 ?
