Object stats are not working?

E.g., see http://api.opencultuurdata.nl/v0/openbeelden/4558763df1b233a57f0176839dc572e9e8726a02/stats
Is this a bug or is it not yet fully implemented (if so, what needs to be done to make it work?).

The stats functionality is implemented: for most request to the REST api a log message is generated which is indexed into Elasticsearch by a separate process. To get an idea of how this works, have a look at the code that generates the log message (e.g. https://github.com/openstate/open-cultuur-data/blob/master/ocd_frontend/rest/views.py#L308-L328) and the Celery task that is responsible for indexing the message (found here: https://github.com/openstate/open-cultuur-data/blob/master/ocd_frontend/rest/tasks.py).

Maybe the Celery worker responsible for indexing the log messages is not running?

Thanks for the info!
The Celery workers are up and running. Also, the ocd_usage_logs index is empty so nothing was ever indexed. Any other ideas?

Are you sure the ocd application is pointing to the correct Redis instance and Celery queue? On what server are you testing this? I just tried it in a clean Ubuntu 14.04 install (using Vagrant) and logging seams to work fine there (index gets created, log documents get added when the API is hit).
