I just found out about this via Reddit and even though I haven’t played D1 in years, I poured loads of time (great times too) into the pvp and would very much like the chance to download/screenshot my old stats. I had no idea they’d be taken down with no way to access them potentially ever again.
My feeling is that at the very least they should be put back up for a period of time now this news is getting around so people can have a last chance to save them how they wish.
