So the topic says it all. I host a few sites for friends and family. Only really charge for a few of them at a minimal monthly fee on my dedicated server. I would like to know what software is recommended and used to graph websites then display the graph on a website the client can log in to. Something simple yet works very well and above all FREE. Iv already considered piwik but that seems a little complicated and never got through the entire setup process. (also had someone start to set it up but never finished so I removed it. Also it MUST BE SECURE. security is a big factor for me. If anyone could recommend something for me it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

What exactly are you wanting to graph? Bandwidth usage, visitors, other metrics?

From my understanding, Piwik is a general website statistics script, correct me if I am wrong. If this is in fact the case, and you are looking for an alternative, check into AWStats. AWStats is free and not difficult to install.

Thank you for the reply. Basically looking for visitors with times and general location though location isn't THAT important.

Sounds like AWStats would work perfectly then :)

Google Analytics (Urchin) works too...and simpler to setup.

I think Google Analytic (http://www.google.com/analytics) is the right choice for you and it's free.

Other options are "AWstats" and "WebAlizer" - they are also free.
