Wow! I am impressed -- and the first video (in which you explain your "measurement focus") explains (to me) your interest in "open search": You are building a measurement search engine!
And that is a phenomenal idea! A long time ago I also thought of doing something like this -- but all I actually managed to do was to register the domain name (one of the very few "brand" oriented names I have ever registered [luckily it was early, so I was able to get the term in all the major TLDs]).
But what you're planning to do is HUGE: the way I see it, this could finally turn around the centralization of metrics that has been going on for the last 5 years, and return to the de-centralization that is what the web is all about.
And therefore (I feel) that such a resource (as you are proposing) needs to be open and transparent, lest it become yet another "Mecca" for "one-size fits-all" measurement.
An unclear measure is a useless measure -- so I applaud you for shining a bright light on this -- and although I appreciate that even though it might get a little hot in the kitchen, more and more stomachs are grumbling and so the time to start cooking is NOW!
