(It would be nice > if you indicated it was second hand...) In a kind of addendum to what I said in my other reply, I have just released a free basic log analyser for the Apache cookie_log. This (at least attempts to) measures the number of unique session accessing pages on a site. The perl script can be found at <URL:http://www.netimages.com/~snowhare/utilities/cookies.html>. This measurement is, of course, completely different than those of traditional access_log analyzers because it only counts unique sessions and not total hits. The script is not a full featured analyzer, but a basic overview tool. -- Benjamin Franz
