I'd love to see a sub listing of each critter you've killed and how many times you've killed each. There's some CritterCap mod I just tried out but it just doesn't do it for me lol. (Ahh I see someone else suggested this lol. I was too excited to read the other posts until now heheh)

I am working on this issue. It's due to the need to parse chat messages for some of the information - and those messages are different depending on the language of your client.
I apologize for any inconvenience - I know how annoying those error messages can get :)
As far as the tracking of kills goes, I see this as a more humorous mod than super technical serious mod (just how it seems).
So, it would be nice if you could track normal mob type kills separately from critters you have killed. A listing for prey and another for Harmless Little Critters heheh. Seems you could flag this easy enough at time of kill. From a DB size standpoint, if you start out with a level 1 and play through 80 levels of monster names, you are going to have a large database of names, what with all the variously named mobs of the same type and sheer number of mobs out there. It might be safer to just track critters anyway. I seem to remember an old mod that tracked kills a year or two ago that ran into some DB size issues. But then, he was tracking tons of stats about the mobs. I guess this isn't the right way to convince you to track critters now that I think about it, considering mobhealth and the item databases like ItemSync lol. Ok! I admit, it's just more fun to me to have a listing of poor defenseless creatures you have stomped than big bad monsters. I can see it now, after 10k bunny rabbits, Historian will then forward refer to you as Bunny Slayer. Ok, the drugs have worn off.
Thanks!
I would really like to see historian track my cash flow. What I have spent on the AH/repairs/vendors and what I have sold on the AH/to the vendors. Also, what I have sent through the mail and received in the mail. If you could break all this down with the date and money, that would be sick :) If you have no plans to implement this, does anyone know of a mod that does this? Much appreciated :)

Historian is definitely not meant to be a serious, technical addon. I would call it ... silly.
I'm not worried about the database size. That said, I am perfectly willing to track number of critter you have killed - I added it to the TODO list and will get around to it sooner or later :)
I did play around with the idea of titles. I was thinking for jumps but it works for critter kills too :) I would just have to come up with some good ones.

Thanks for the compliment :) Although I like your suggestion, it's big enough to be an addon of its own I would say. And I know there are addons out there who at least come close (whose authors might implement any of the missing stuff if you ask).
CT_ExpenseHistory is a cost tracking mod. It tracks how much you spend on repairs, reagents, ammo, and mail postage. Usable via /eh, or the CT control panel, you can see your totals spent for all characters, per character, or a dated log of what you spent when.
You could probably make this death-thing into its own addon, much like MoneyFu is laid out. Deaths this session, today, this week, all-time, grouped by (zones or pvm/pve/pvp) and calculated into a deaths/h ratio. Would show your other toons as well. ;D Is there a way to recognize team- and raid-wipes? Could count that as well. The way my instances are going lately, I could make good use of such an addon. ;)
Is there any chance it could track the number of times a hearthstone is used in combat, separately to general hearthstone use (which I realise is still to-do anyway)? I can't be the only one who'd be interested in knowing (and then lying about) the number of times my paladin has decided to make a "tactical retreat".
Any chance to have this tracke how much money you have spent on taxi's, and how many times you have flown (without regard from where to where)?
I think this is fairly well covered by the other addons mentioned (CT_ExpenseHistory and AuditorFu). I might put in a simple counter such as number of times, but it probably won't track to the extend you mention.

Also, if it hasn't been mentioned, how many times you have died, separated into death by environment, player, or npc.
I had this on the TODO list for a while, but I think it might be more trouble than it is worth to implement. I'll take another look at it at some point, though :)

BTW, I never kill frogs or toads!
Thanks for the fun mod!

I'll add HS uses to the TODO list. Keep the suggestions coming :)

It always seems to be the same people who req. a TP in raid :)

I hope so - it was already on my TODO list :)
All excellent suggestions - I will try to implement these. Thanks!

One that I know about is CT_ExpenseHistory. I quote:
I hope you find what you are looking for :)
