Default Redefining Aggression - PokerAce Hud

I'm looking to create a more accurate aggression stat for the next release of PokerAce Hud. There was a thread here a couple weeks ago on how non-useful or actually harmful the aggression factor in PokerTracker can be.

Here is my idea (with help from a friend) for the new aggression stat. It would be represented as:

(times_bet + times_raised) / (times_bet + times_raised + (times_checked - times_checkraised))

This totally removes calls out of the stat. Basically, it's nothing but the pure aggression stats.

I'm going to do some testing to see what kind of numbers I get, but I would like to get your opinions on this formula. Do you think it will be an accurate representation of aggression?

Also, what should I name this stat? I've gotten one suggestion, "aggression frequency." I like it, but I'm always open to suggestions.
