/stats entity <player> clear <stat>

For a block (located at a specific coordinate) to set a stat:

/stats block <x> <y> <z> set <stat> <selector> <objective>

For a block (located at a specific coordinate) to clear a stat:

/stats block <x> <y> <z> clear <stat>

/stats entity DigMinecraft set AffectedItems @a FirstObjective

To clear the AffectedBlocks stats for all players within 30 blocks:

/stats entity @a[r=30] clear AffectedBlocks

To set the stats for the scoreboard objective called SecondObjective for the nearest player with the number of entities affected by commands executed by the block located at the coordinate (-60, 89, 210):
