How about moving the stats functions from builtin-stat.c to e.g.
util/stats.c, and then reusing them? Then this struct (which I would
rename to kvm_event_stats) would look like this

struct kvm_event_stats {
u64 time;
struct stats stats;
};

of course the get_event_ accessor generators would need tweaking

Given the history of the command (first submitted back in February) code refactoring can wait until there is a second user for the stats code.
