Two questions

I must be really stupid because no one else has this thread started already lol. How in the heck do I edit or create my RSS feed for Wordpress? I tried setting it up and it keeps saying on the page that "this user does not have the feed set up correctly."

Second question, what is the best stats checker or "tracker" plug in I can use on my wordpress blog? I found one a few months ago (i dont remember the name now) but it was supposed to be really good, but you had to submit an application.. no one ever got back to me! So I thought I would try something else. Any ideas?

For rss feed you do not need to edit it. It automaticly pulls your info and recent blog posts from your blog. If its not working then you must have a php error or something. If thats the case then post your rss feed here.

As for the stats I use getclicky.com for all my stats. It works great for me.

I like StatPress for a WP tracker plugin, but overall I'd use Google Analytics.

As for your feed, it should be yourdomain.com/feed/ which is automatically generated in WordPress, no setup needed.

I can't figure this out either,

I need my blogs 'external xml feed' or something, to get my most recent blog post to show..

I thought it was http://christophogo.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default this URL but when I put that in the box it doesn't work!

Personally, I use Feedburner and Google Analytics (both free) to track visitors and stats. Between the two of them, I get what kind of information I need from my blog.
