There seems to be a bug, e.g.: shop=tailor is existing 62 times in the DB:

http://www.informationfreeway.org/api/0.6/node[shop=tailor]

but the corresponding row in your table shows no value.


Could you update the JOSM rules? Seems to be outdated as I've done some 
minor improvements days ago still not showing up. Maybe doing this 
automatically with a update date displayed on your page? :-)
