Is there currently tools out there that can calculate the average percentage of transactions, based on their value that
would show the possible influence, if these micro transactions were taken off-chain with the Lightning Network. We know the
Lightning Network is more focussed on micro transactions and if these transactions are taken off-chain, then the MemPool
will be basically empty.

https://blockchain.info/charts/mempool-count {Also not what I want}
It should drill down much deeper to show, say transactions between X amount {or BTC value} to Y amount, make up this
or that percentage of the total transactions for a predefined time. Hope you get what I am saying.
If we can evaluate the impact, we could speed up adoption of the LN. {Yes, I know it is still experimental}

Basically you want a chart where
x= time
y= percentage of transaction under z amount in the mempool.
Is that correct?
Well, you are getting close. The graph needs several inputs. One axis should reflect different transaction sizes and the other
axis, what the percentage impact those transactions sizes will have on the MemPool. To determine that, we need to analyse
how many of the total transactions {average} are micro transactions. We then look at the MemPool and extract the impact
it would have had, if it was not there. {because it would have been more effective if it was running off-chain on the LN}
Rather than having different transaction sizes on one axis wouldn’t it be more efficient to represent different transaction sizes as different lines through the same graph albeit with different colors?
