With registration I would get a tracking ID (much like I have one for Google Adsense) and I'm sure lots of statistics. If / when it becomes important to me, I will register and get that going. Because the code is hosted by AddThis I can't "mod" it to capture my own statistics.

I have a feeling that they don't get used that often. Are you collecting usage statistics on how many people are using this “AddThis” thing on your site?
