Have you thought of writing the metrics collection part (and eventually the whole thing) in Go? You would get the stand-alone distribution right away and would keep people from installing any extra dependencies.

EDIT: Fixed typo.

Yeah - we thought about this, but decided to get started in Ruby since it's the fastest way for us to ship. Go is definitely interesting.
