Sans the players opinions, this is discouraged from the game's ToS (use of parsers), ingame mentioning, and at best, discussion of it on the forums. I think someone here acutally got banned for discussing the numbers and is pretty much left to posting his findings on a blog.

The most we can really go about doing is saying "I'm not getting any reported misses with X accuracy" or "I need X amount of skill speed to reduce my GCD by .01 seconds", which then does not account for it's affect on DoTs and summoner pet damage.
