I'm looking for a feature within Bricklink that can tell me which parts only
have appeared in one set. This information is already within bricklink, just
not displayed as a list anywhere.

(another forum poster suggested that since we already have a MOST common parts
function, a LEAST common parts function could be a solution - as long as it takes
into account color, leaves out parts in colors that never appeared in any set,
and includes more than 25 in the list)

This will be very helpful to me and others, as noted in this thread: http://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=842426

I have a huge bin of my childhood LEGO, and unfortunately I did not keep all
of my instructions. This list would be very helpful in figuring out which sets
I have. For example,
 
Part No: 2826  Name: Windscreen 5 x 8 x 3
* 
2826 Windscreen 5 x 8 x 3
Parts: Windscreen
only appeared in dark blue in 1 set. I have this
part, which means I have the parts for
 
Set No: 6175  Name: Crystal Explorer Sub
* 
6175-1 (Inv) Crystal Explorer Sub
152 Parts, 2 Minifigures, 1995
Sets: Aquazone: Aquanauts

Thank you for your consideration!!

If such a thing existed, it would be useful to be able to strip out all parts that are stickered, since many of them are unique to a set.
