Are stats files being written to /usr/local/ldm/logs, by chance? This is where they would go by default if you built from source and LDMHOME was set to /usr/local/ldm. I'm guessing that they are being written somewhere, otherwise I'd expect that you would get a complaint in the log file. Regardless, try adding the -d option to the invocation of pqbinstats. Also, you could try putting it in debug mode with the -x option to see if it reports anything useful. See the man page for more information.
