i usually read the stats from blogstat and if i’m looking for a detailed information i’ll log in to my google analytics.

The WordPress.com Stats Plugin is not working because it needs to be linked to a WordPress.com account.
Enter your WordPress.com API key to link this blog to your WordPress.com account. Be sure to use your own API key! Using any other key will lock you out of your stats. (Get your key here.)
