I do not believe Dathorn uses/allowes Urchin stats...
I may be wrong, but this is what I *vaguely* remember
from the old forums, as it seemed a topic for new customers...

Well, it shows up as an option in the Cpanel page that lists FTP Stats options.
It would be nice to know there is an alternative to AW stats- not because AWStats is bad, but because it only updates once per day, and I can't seem to figure out how to do a self-install of the script so I can make it update whenever I want.
Being able to offer clients the option of getting stats more than once per day would be a nice addition!
If you want to run logs whenever you want, you'll need to do it off the server. Logs are only to be run between 1 and 4 AM if I remember correctly. You can run AwStat on your own computer, you'll need to install Perl. I do this for the client I have here.

An interesting thought, oh mighty Buddha!
Since (as I understand it) a stats program simply parses the raw logs into some semblence of understandable order, so it seems like there MUST be applications that can do this with a downloaded log.
Unless I'm missing something, it seems like downloading the raw logs take about 1 or 2 minutes, then it could be processed offline!
Anybody know of an app that will do the processing?
Having done this a while for a client, I would suggest charging the client a huffty fee for this service. May take a couple of minutes to download the log but it takes a few hours to run the logs when they get big. Can be a real pain in the CPU.
I do this for my clients too.
Some of my clients want/need/request/demand country stats too.
So after I download the logfile, I run it through a nice little program called LookupIP.exe first. Then I run the replaced results through Weblogexpert for final graphic report.
Some clients now do it by themselves with minimal instructions given, others can never get it right so I mail them the stats once a month in a wordfile as part of the service.
I use Funnel Web Analyzer. Free version can ftp download log, lookup IP addresses and generate fine reports. The only prob is how to allow user to ftp download logs... I do not allow them full FTP access to their account space, just public_html
