NL Hold 'Em is largely about post-flop play and handreading, not stats.

This is exactly right. I've seen almost the full range of stats played "well" enough to profit in the long run, although very very few can play super loose aggressive and win in the long run (like 70%+ VPIP 35%+PFR) - it can be done.

In Small Stakes NLHE (6max short handed) the average winning player is something like 15-30%vpip, 3-15%pfr, 1.5-4 post flop aggression. The common thread is somewhat (but not overly) aggressive postflop. These stats are for 6max games btw - I imagine the average winning player in full ring is somewhat tighter overall.
