Do employers have to prove that they are interviewing a mix of candidates?

Just trying to curb my enthusiasm. I've finally gotten an interview with a great local company. I don't want to get my hopes too high at this point, it's only a phone interview, and the job description was very non-specific.

It occurred to me that, since I am a 55-year-old woman, they could be making themselves look more inclusive by giving me an interview. Does anyone know if the EEOC requires companies to provide statistics on their hiring and interviewing practices?

Now, back to the positive thinking for me!
