Just to ease the fix, a patch follows (see below).

Sadly, when I was writing HTTPS Everywhere rules for the first time,
I've tested each and every link on http://www.yandex.ru/all and further,
and added exceptions for every service which wasn't serving content via
HTTPS. However, after that from time to time I faced problems accessing
domains that were previously working fine.

It's, to say, a mystery why https://stat.yandex.ru is working and
seemingly connected https://wordstat.yandex.ru is not.

It is now too late in Moscow, but I would get in touch with colleagues
from Yandex yesterday and discuss their attitude to supporting HTTPS in
their services. As the result of conversation I either will have some
kind confirmation that the list of Yandex services without HTTPS
wouldn't grow significantly soon or will rewrite the HTTPS config for
Yandex completely.
