For a long time, I posted a table that tracked my submissions, rejections, and sales for each year. I had people tell me it was a bad idea, because it was like flaunting your failures.
Every writer knows rejection is a part of the process. Or if they don't know, they need to learn. So pbbt on that and "Hell yeah!" to the posting of rejections. Heck, one of the most popular posts I ever did on LiveJournal was a discussion of how long it took me to sell a book, and how many rejections I collected on various novels to get to that point.
I do disagree with you on one thing, though. You're a writer. Ergo you are a bit of a masochist ;-)
