I agree, that's definitely the most important statistic. A more useful statistic would be the age of the oldest unreviewed revision.
What would also be useful would be to put together the list of articles with outdated reviews with those articles' page view statistics. Put that together with measurements of the amount of time that articles spend with outdated reviews and you would have a pretty good picture of the real effect on readers of outdated revisions (which may be more or less than the raw 1.5% figure).
(Note that it's 0.5% of articles that don't have any reviewed revisions, and 1.5% that have a non-current revision reviewed. Information about the ages of revisions in both these categories would be interesting.)
