What if we changed the format to


 <one>
       <two>
            <three>something</three>
                    <statistic one>aaaa</statistic one>
                  <four>
                        <statistic one>xxx</statistic one>
                         <five>
                               <six>
                                     <seven>
                                     <seven1>

 Do I have to do an apply-template on "ancestor::two/child::three" in order
to get to associated <statistic one> value or is their some clever way I can
do the entire selection in one line?
