Where are the predictions?

Been thinking more about my comments about Feedburner stats and realised they’re applicable to a much wider field.

Why have I not seen predictions in any online stats package - whether it be traffic stats, feed stats, revenue (e.g. Adsense)?

People love checking their stats out but all the statistics packages I’ve seen are purely descriptive and not predictive.

Why haven’t online developers joined forces with statisticians who can model this data and provide predictions for the future?

These rich databases are just waiting to be mined.

I use Mint - is there an add-on for predictions and modelling the data?
