The problem is that you won't get there unless he's a reg and/or you play for a (semi)living.
I played 50k hands in my first two weeks at 100nl, mostly to get stats. Also to get used to pot sizes. And also cos of addiction. You don't have to play for a living to get the data...

also, someone who is only raising 2% of flops is very rarely 3-betting AK or QQ...
