I see what you mean, the fact it returns all hashrates in Mh/s regardless of using scrypt limits the precision I can get. I have to then take the number I receive and multiply it by 1000 to display the correct Kh/s. That is something that would need to be changed in CGMiner. I don't want to try to maintain a branch of that if I make changes to it (because I believe it is still being actively developed), but you can request the change with the CGMiner developer. It doesn't have to send the hashrate in Kh/s... it could just send more numbers after the decimal.

Yeah, maybe he can change it to 4 decimal places, which would give us 1 decimal place when converting to kh/s. Of course this would cause a problem with Mh/s, which would then have to be truncated or rounded so as not to be unsightly Smiley. Ideally, cgminer should check the algo being used and return the appropriate precision. Maybe I'll post a request over in the cgminer thread. Thanks!
