Check out -groups- and -tabcount- from SSC.
There was a write-up in
Speaking Stata: Problems with tables, Part II.
Stata Journal 3(4): 420--439 (2003)
You need, however, to be very careful with terminology
in this connection: when you refer to missing values here you
mean values that are not present, not at all the
same thing!
