I don't think that is precise enough.  Those statistics are only
interesting if restricted to anonymous inner classes that implement a
SAM type (as you say), AND define a single method, AND have no fields,
AND pass no constructor arguments, AND are not generic methods, etc.
The rest of them wouldn't be candidates for lambda expressions anyway.
 That's why I generated the statistics I did and also provided the
code for others to do the same.
