I am currently hosting my own site on a typical LAMP server. Previous vb's that I managed were on hosted servers with decent tools for analyzing server traffic. Can anyone recommend some tools to analyze my traffic? Currently I only have the apache2 access logs which are quite verbose and I would need to create some form of analsis tool to make use of them. In particular I'm seeking hourly daily and monthly unique hits.

webalizer, awstats, but there are many to use.

Personally I like awstats, although it can be a bit confusing at first because there are different ways of implementing it. I use an entry in /etc/logrotate.d/apache2 to build the stats each day just before the logs are rotated, then output the stats as static pages to a password protected, web-accessible dir. Certainly awstats would give you the hourly/daily/monthly hits (plus a lot more)

Thank you I will investigate awstats.

Be forewarned, awstats is a pig on resources, as is webalizer when it comes to huge log files.

If you do 20gigs + of traffic a day, you will want to cron awstats/webalizer to build the stats hourly, not once a day.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
