Rake is taken from the pot, not from individual players. So if you want to create some kind of reward system like rakeback or frequent player points, etc., there are basically two ways to do that. One is to simply divide the total rake evenly among all the players that were dealt into the hand, regardless of how much each one put in. That benefits the more conservative players. The other method is to base the reward proportionally on how many chips each player contributed to the pot. That benefits the more aggressive players. The Rake Stats utility will calculate it either way. Also note that the hand history format was changed slightly in version 4.29, allowing you to calculate this yourself in an easier manner.
