Comment:

 On review, I'm going to kick this into 0.2.4.x, and solicit ideas for how
 to make it better.  As it stands, it isn't too wrong, but it isn't
 actually useful: we only venture an opinion as to our skew if we have
 talked to >3 directory authorities. But that will practically never happen
 for clients; only for caches or relays, which generally don't do torbutton
 and don't have a great use for this info.

 IOW, this exposes the info we have, but we don't typically have enough
 info here to be useful for clients.
