Comment (by irl):

 The `advertised_bandwidth_fraction` field was removed in #13673 from
 Onionoo details documents, so this would have to be calculated by metrics-
 bot.

 My guess for the second one is that the percentages refer to guard, middle
 and exit probabilities? This data is already in the details documents and
 would just have to be aggregated by country as the other fields currently
 are. Just throwing in 3 percentages though, I'm not sure people would know
 what they are.

 The text generator for the response in IRC and the random tweets is
 currently the same code, maybe there should be an "extended" output that
 is only used for IRC that includes the relay count, adv. bandwidth, guard,
 middle, exit probabilities and consensus weight fractions encoded in some
 sort of summary like:

 {{{<metrics-bot> 1230 relays in Germany are currently contributing
 5.0GiB/s bandwidth to the #Tor network
 https://atlas.torproject.org/#search/country:de [G:368(p=24.06%)
 M:(p=23.89%) E:108(p=21.94%) C:23.4472%]}}}
