I would like to install an online statisics program onto my server. The program would be used at least once per day for a single web site. I am interested in detailed stats, but I want to spend as little money as possible.

What statistics programs would you recommend?

How do I install it without using a control panel?

What server are you running?

IIS
Apache

Win2k? Linux?

It is a Linux server with Apache.

try
http://www.mrunix.net/webalizer/

also do not remember the link but another freebie is Analog

I would suggest webalizer though does a god job and is free
best price around

if you need mroe detailed and can have a little graphic on the bottom of the page
check out the webtrends live

Is there a stats package out there for the Unix system (redhat) that will give the amount of unique visitors and page views on a per day basis?

Can you determine that info from log files?

Aloha
yes check out above link for webalizer its free

Thanks, will do!
