Nice idea. :-)
Maybe it would be useful to add another metric that adds a weighting for consecutive letters that occupy the same key and which require the user to pause as the letter is accepted.
For example it takes longer to type "monom" than "minim" although the number of key presses is the same.

  Hmm. In Japanese mobile phones, users need to type [>] key or something like that to step to the next character. This module calculates this [>] as 1 keystroke.
