Season statistics
Each stat is stored as a value–count pair, so seasons can be added together and the rate is always value ÷ count.

| Aces | 7,984 | 5,740 service games | 1.4 / game |

Value is what happened (aces hit, points won), count is how often it could (service games, points played). Adding seasons adds both — the rate is never averaged from percentages.
