Hi, I am looking for the most comprehensive website stats script,
any recommendation? It must be real time one.

I noticed that statcounter.com has all the things i want but unfortunately you have to paid after reach certain pageviews..

Anyone please suggest? thanks.

Hello

For stats i use AWStats they give me everything graphs and hits and easy to use.

I used awstats, webanalyser, urchin and smarterstats, I would think smarterstats the best.

hi boonchuan, webanalyser, urchin and smarterstats, which one is real time one? I notice that Awstat and google analytic is not real time, the result is yesterday stats

yeah, awstats and google analytics are 24 hours ago but i think they are good enough. well to me , i don't need a real time traffic script and i bet a real time script consumes too much cpu or memory resources...

You can set awstats to run every hour, or every 10 minutes , if you have access to cron tabs.
Awstats is very good, because is using apache log files, so is catching 404's, and all access stuff.

My choice is awstats, too.

What type of stats are you wanting to capture?

i have a script that captures ip, isp, referer (if any), client user agent, page of first contact and tracks every movement made on the website all in real time, can even be set to limit requests per minute to slow down inconsiderate spiders. email me and you can have it

My choice is awstats, too.

Awstats + 1

Awstats is good.

Google Analytics is pretty awesome, but there are some things it can't track for you (e.g. hits to URLs that are redirected), not to mention that it depends heavily on users having javascript enabled, cookies accepted, and no proxies blocking known tracking software.

Depends on what stats you're most interested in.

I run mint (http://www.haveamint.com/) on a few sites and really like it.

What about statcounter.com ?

I do NOT recommend anyone to use such crap as AWStats. It's slooooooow, soooo slow. Especially when you compare it to things like visitors (a very good one) and webalizer.

You can set awstats to run every hour, or every 10 minutes , if you have access to cron tabs.

Hell! AWstats set to be recalculating every 10 minutes... Nothing more powerful if you want to kill you server's CPU!

I really suggest you to have a look to webalizer and visitors. Eventually, you can use both at the same time (that's what we do).
