It has an option to turn off anonymous statistical data. If this works then I'm okay with it, if not, someone please let me know.

Well, the option is actually to turn in on. By default, Ghostery does not collect anything.

It's off by default. I've made the informed choice to opt in because I read their blog and understand how they work and I like the product. There could be no less offensive way of collecting data.
