Column Description Example
  schemaname   (from pg_namespace join)   public
  tablename   (from pg_class join)   tax
  attname   (from pg_attribute table)   rank_id
  null_frac   Fraction of entries that are null.   0
  avg_width   Average width in bytes.   2
  n_distinct   Number of distinct entries. Greater 0 is the number of distinct, less than one is "distinct/rows"   14
  most_common_vals   Most common values (MCV). Max = statistics_target   {220,180}
  most_common_freqs   For each MCV, the number appearing/ total rows.   {0.741333,0.105667}
  histogram_bounds   Histogram information. Max = statistics_target (MCV not included)   {60,140,150,230,230,230,240,240,240,240,260}  
  correlation   Correlation from -1 to +1 of how well the physical matches the logical.   0.723142
