You can approximate the same thing by combining CheckUsage with the wikistats page views. You won't get the info about the size of the thumbnail unless you do some extra hackery though. Also, it's quite a pain as CheckUsage is only a toolserver tool, and is subject to those usual vagaries of service.
And it's not of much historical use, because CheckUsage doesn't tell you when the image was added. And it would quite possibly overload CheckUsage to poll every single image every day or whatnot.
I agree it would be great for Commons. All it needs is someone (with access to squid logs) who shares that enthusiasm... I think??
I'd think that's all it would take, yep.
