I guess you mean the ECDF under assumption of independent trials? I developed one as a Boost.Accumulator here:

While it's been a while I haven't touched these directories, I'd be happy to do some maintenance & a proper doc/test suite.
Nod, this looks more like an accumulator than a distribution - in the sense that you can only calculate properties from a set of values?

It is the ECDF assuming independent sampling (I think identically need not even be assumed) and derived quantities (such as Kolmogorov Smirnov statistic) :
F(x) = count of samples below x
The fact that it's an accummulator is just a convenience : the distribution is updated each time a sample is passed to the acc.
I'm doing maintenance work right not, whether or not this matches the need of the Denis. It shouldn't take too much time (days).

Perhaps you are thinking about offering an interface identical to boost's statistical distribution's (not accumulator), as [math] would suggest. Just a thought : it shouldn't be too hard to specify a wrapper around an accumulator with this interface, but perhaps there already exists things like that (haven't checked in a while)...
