The second number is the worker index.
The interface counters are arranged as a two dimensional array in shared 
memory. First dimension is thread_index second is sw_if_index.

vpp_get_stats was something I wrote as an example application for the C stats 
library.
There are various integrations using the stats API that might be of interest.
vpptop was pretty cool as a standalone application. Not sure if it's well 
maintained.
