Okay... I took it upon myself to modify this hack slightly to include an animated, 'growing' stat bar...
Demo is here:

And now I'm wondering why the Flash movie is forcing an even scale- I use the hpf%, etc to determine the Flash movie's width, and of course, the height scales with it... Which makes the smaller bars skinnier... which is cool, but not my desired result. Any ideas on how to maintain the "9" height?
I was surprised this actually worked for me, honestly!
Comments, suggestions, etc, would be nice!
