I updated too and didn't got the same thing.
However, I sent a support ticket to SWsoft explaing this issue and telling them that stats never worked on any 7.6 or 7.6.1 servers, but apart from that update, I got this nice reply:
"Hello again Bogdan,
I would first recommend you to reinstall the Plesk installations, usually that helps to resolve that kind of problems. Such errors occur when statistics process fails due to some reason and in your situation that reason could be the "Unexpected query for column year" issue.
Please let us know if you still encounter the same problem after reinstalling Plesk."
Although their patch fixed the querry issue, I still get this, like everyone else here:

Now, correct me if I'm wrong, shouldn't this have been resolved by now? Is that how the SWsoft techs should handle bug reports? Telling people to reinstall after we already set up a lot of clients and a lot of domains on the servers?
Am I too demanding when I ask for these bugs to be fixed? I do understand that there can be bugs like this in any software release (although not as many as in Plesk, especially 7.6) but I don't think that we should pay extra for them to fix them, especially because it's a think that never worked in the first place.
I am using several Control Panels and I have dealt with other support teams, but I never encounter such attitude anywhere!
I must say, I am extremely dissapointed with this!
