+The `pagestats` directive is supplied by the [[!iki plugins/pagestats desc=pagestats]] plugin.
+
+This directive can generate stats about how pages link to each other. It can
+produce either a tag cloud, or a table counting the number of links to each
+page.
+
+Here's how to use it to create a [[tag]] cloud, with tags sized based
+on frequency of use:
+
+ \[[!pagestats pages="tags/*"]]
+
+Here's how to create a list of tags, sized by use as they would be in a
+cloud.
+
+ \[[!pagestats style="list" pages="tags/*"]]
+
+And here's how to create a table of all the pages on the wiki:
+
+ \[[!pagestats style="table"]]
+
+The optional `among` parameter limits the pages whose outgoing links are
+considered. For instance, to display a cloud of tags used on blog
+entries, while ignoring other pages that use those tags, you could use:
+
+ \[[!pagestats pages="tags/*" among="blog/posts/*"]]
+
+Or to display a cloud of tags related to Linux, you could use:
+
+ \[[!pagestats pages="tags/* and not tags/linux" among="tagged(linux)"]]
+
+The optional `show` parameter limits display to the specified number of
+pages. For instance, to show a table of the top ten pages with the most
+links:
+
+ \[[!pagestats style="table" show="10"]]
+
+The optional `class` parameter can be used to control the class
+of the generated tag cloud `div` or page stats `table`.
