I hope that the Yaun-ti is over done, it's a popular monster in D&D. The 2e description of the Monster in the Monster Manual is so flavorful that it's better than what Wizards has done with it. Somehow, with the mysteries dispelled in the Monster Manual and -Serpent Kingdoms- the mystique of this monster and what makes it so monstrous is dispelled.
Anyway, I used the ARG play test to generate these stats:

Sorry about the mentioning of a Level Adjustment, it's much easier for me to mention it. :) I'd like some feedback, if you please.
