Is there an "mtdstat" or similar program that I can use to get the
stats of an MTD device? Basically, I want to know the state of the
physical device (free blocks, used blocks, etc.).

The problem with this is that "free" and "used" are determined by higher 
level usage - ie the file system - rather than the device itself. Dunno what 
JFFS gives you, but you can see these stats in YAFFS through /proc/yaffs.
