It's been my experience that you shouldn't put "simple" or synonyms in the title of a software library. If the project is any good it will grow, and eventually outgrow its simplicity.
A "bayesian" classifier is a class of classifiers, not a particular algorithm. Naive bayes isn't (in most implementations) Bayesian! Finally you should specify what smoothing, if any, you use.
It's a very nice idea, if you have time, you could aim to incorporate other modern tools: robust statistics (trimmed means etc.), effect sizes, confidence intervals
This looks great. For large datasets does it handle the long running request issues that cause browsers to display a warning? If anyone uses this for processing a decent size amount of data I'd be interested in your opinion.

I think it should say
"Create a naive bayes classifier."

Hope that helps!
