There isn't anything that will.  Currently, neither

	1) the ability to disable protocol dissectors

nor

	2) the ability to get protocol statistics

are supported by Tethereal.

If this doesn't have to be done in a script, you might try reading the
file with Ethereal, instead, and using the "Protocol Hierarchy
Statistics" menu item under the "Tools" menu.
