Where can I read about how the unit's stats work ?

It's all in the Official Strategy Guide or you could look check out The Shogun Academy http://shogun-academy.tripod.com/dojo.html for an explanation of how they work in STW which is similar to MTW. Otherwise, check out Cheetah's Contents thread http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/Forum7/HTML/001388.html to track down info that's been posted here.
