Apparently Dave McCarty made a statement at a recent panel and also has an update on his Facebook.
"My "next" public announcement (revising a statement I just made an hour ago on a panel about the Chengdu Worldcon that was held this morning):
The Hugo voting stats have been on a long and winding journey, but that journey is at an end. They have been reviewed at multiple levels by our team and all the things we could find that needed correction have been resolved.
The usual bugaboos like typos in the summation formulas have been joined with items like "this is a valid translation of that phrase, but it's not the right one for this purpose" (which happened a bunch of places) and "this font is meant for Japan and while readable, won't look appropriate to fans in China (which was a hard one to get rid of because I kept misunderstanding the feedback).
But, we think they're as correct as we can make them.
The reviews finished too late "today" in China. The website folks are already asleep.
They should have the results up on the website by noon "tomorrow" (a bit more than 12 hours from now) and at that point there should be social media announcements and I will push the PDF to TheHugoAwards.org and a few other places like Locus and file770.
The last page of the PDF says roughly what I'm about to say here:
The nomination stats are not out yet. We will definitely have them out before the deadline of 90 days post convention, but right now "No, I don't have an expected release date"
Again, folks connected with me are free to spread this post wherever they think appropriate."

So the final voting stats should be out sometime soon but the nomination stats are still awhile off. Given the time it is taken to do the final voting stats (which I'd imagine is the easier of the two tasks) and with a busy holiday period approaching, I'd guess January is still likely.
