Well if the stats engine is down, it means the master server is down, which means you can't go to the test range or play on any servers. I wanted to test out the Saiga this morning, but seems they're still down.

It's just a well executed DDoS...it's extremely difficult to protect against a spread out DDoS...most defense essentially black hole(null route if you're a networking guy) the subnet(s) that are used in the attack. If your attack is spread out enough(meaning the attacking IP's have a large enough varying range), that becomes very,very difficult to do even with all the right equipment because then you isolate yourself from everything useful. You can also get DDoS'd by your ISP being attacked if they don't have proper protection or the attackers max out the bandwidth of link(s) in your path. You also need to have equipment fast enough to process the load and rapidly identify the attackers to null route them - depending on the size of the attack that isn't really realistic. Basically there isn't a 'silver bullet' for DDoS...not much you can do quickly for a well distributed DDoS.
