Hmm..I stand corrected.

I could have sworn that I read somewhere that statistics numbers were constant 
across versions.  However, a quick check of 8iR3 and 9iR2 manuals on tahiti 
specifically states that they can and will change.

I think I'm losing my mind,

"Note that unlike latch numbers, the statistics numbers are invariant 
across Oracle versions"

That's not entirely true. Some of the statistic# have changed with 
Oracle10g for example. Granted, "CPU used by this session" is still 12, but 
"physical reads" is now 48 (was 40 in 9i), etc.
I think it is still a good idea to join to v$statname.
