Wouldn't the impact of a deletion be measured by the number of times "Wikipedia does not have an article with this exact name." is viewed?
The negative impact, perhaps... but even that incompletely: Web searches don't normally take people to non-existent pages.
There is also a positive impact from some deletion, but thats harder to measure.
Just count all the times the nonexistent pages aren't visited. Easy-peasy.
