Seph isn't saying that the problem is that the stats are not good enough, but that they are too good. They probably indicate the host is trying to pack as many websites onto a server as possible.
In general, it depends on what your website popularity will be and what kind of content it will host. If you will have a lot of big files, you need big disk space, and if you transfer those files to a lot of visitors, you need a lot of transfer. If you plan to use auto-responders, check whether they have them, and so on. The best indicator of a good host is how much attention they spend on their server quality and support.
