What I'm looking for is a chart of total medals vs. possible medals.

For example, for a country that only has one athlete in one sport, their total possible medals is 1. So if they get 1 medal, they have a 100% success rate, which is pretty good.

I've seen charts of total medals vs # of athletes participating, but that's not quite right, because it doesn't account for team sports. One country might have 4 people on the swim relay team, but that's still only one possible medal (and if they win it should only count as one).

I suspect someone will link me directly to what I'm looking for soon, but I've yet to find it on my own.
