I was wondering if there is a sort of tool that generates summaries for mailing list activity and charts like number of users, number of active users, etc. Would something like this be a good idea or is it already done?
There are such tools but they're not integrated into the Mailman 2 web interface, and I think they're not in Postorius or Hyperkitty yet, either. They're frequently requested and I think Postorius provides some infrastructure for such things.

We actually have a whole summer of code project that was on metrics from a few years ago. I believe it worked as separate add-in for Mailman, but perhaps we should take a look at integrating it better into hyperkitty (or maybe postorius?) if people are unaware that it exists. I'd like to see that code integrated part of any new effort in this area.

Yes, Stephen also mentioned about its separate working and not being able to get integrated with mailman. But, I guess it would be cool if this metrics project can be integrated with postorius or hyperkitty as you mentioned.
Thanks, Ankush Sharma github.com/black-perl
