I purchased Web Trends awhile
back. The program looked great, but was virtually useless. Everyday you had to
download your stats (10-20 megabytes of data) and then Web Trends would spit out a ton of
data which I manually checked and found to be innaccurate. I also signed up for
their affilliate program but they never sent me a dime. Worse was 50% of the data
analysis was completely worthless. Thus, I invented a completely automated version
of their program except I took out all the bugs and didnt waste time making pretty
graphics. This is a hardcore statistical analyzer. Calculates raw hits, page
views, bookmarked visitors, home page views, unique visitors, bandwidth, page views per
visitor, operating systems and browsers used, error reports, lists top refering URLS, most
and least popular webpages on your site, and even does security checks to warn you of
hackers trading passwords and networks launching password hurler attacks. This may
not be as pretty as Web Trends but its a hell of alot more useful. Runs
automatically via crontab.
