Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Moonlight Game Streaming at 4.2 against MC Stats's 3.0. Moonlight Game Streaming also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ratings volume (607 vs 2). MC Stats's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 2 weeks) and device support (6 vs 4). On price, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
