I'm pretty sure it's C.

I have a vague memory of using "stats" first, so maybe C is the one to go with.

Ah, I've seen this type of query before. I'm pretty sure the right answer is D, "stats vendor_action (count)". That's the standard way to count the number of events with a specific field.

Wait, is this a trick question? What if the correct answer is actually 'count vendor_action' and they're just trying to confuse us with all these extra keywords?
