The statistics are refreshed at specified periods of time to speed up the Welcome screen loading. They are refreshed automatically when the information covered by the specific category changes, also you can refresh them manually selecting the Refresh option from the statistic options menu.
You can organize this information by closing some not important to you statistic boxes and/or organizing the content in the columns. You can setup as many as 10 columns.
