Have you considered Redis for persistence in place of MongoDB? It's excellent for stats applications.

There are companies doing stats applications using MongoDB too. It's supposedly one of its strengths. I'll look into Redis too, though.

I've seen people using MongoDB in memory only as a cache, so that they can mapreduce it. Even without that, it's writes to disk are async so it's fast.

What's the point of map reduce if data can be held in memory ?

why do you think it's better than MongoDB for stats?
