Looking for Best Stats Script
Hi All

I'm looking for a great stats program. Here are some of the things that I think I need:

1. installs at virtual level

2. reads logs - access, error...

3. ties keywords to search engines, and even better if it links to the search page so that we can click that link and see where we come out in the search engine for that keyword

4. filter - exclude stats from certain IP's, like our own

5. filter - exclude stats on hits to designated files or directories.

6. fast...not a memory hog. must be able to process a lot of hits and not bog down the server

7. logs unique visitors, maybe evens tracks history of unique visitors...like, "IP 212.232.21.13 has visited 61 times" with more details than that.

8. written in perl

9. more stuff I can't think of right now.

I've heard that AWStats is good, but I don't know specifically whether it will provide the detail I need. I've also seen Analog (with Webalyzer), but, from what I saw, it didn't seem to do the job.

Any suggestions??

Thanks very much. Smile Smile

Analog would be great, but I'm not sure about the filters. Maybe there's some sort of plugin, or maybe the filters have to be custom built I'm not sure.

Have you tried emailing the analog author maybe to ask if it can accomodate your feature requests?
