What happened to Statsremote?
 

Looks like they are gone. Stats Remote | Know your numbers

Is there no longer a need for a service like this in the industry? If there something better or different that people are using?

nobody knows it

Nifty Stats is the best tool

Nifty ftw

They have been gone for a long time. Nifty is a good alternative.

Nifty seems like an incredible value at only $20/month.
