1Analysing for what? People's interest? Creating an table of most frequently used browsers? – Lekensteyn Feb 17 '11 at 15:36

Yes, browser usage, OS usage, iPhone vs Android, iPad usage etc. And maybe how often users visit the site etc. – rlovtang Feb 17 '11 at 15:42

Analog can handle this. With the appropriate logfile format you should be able to get reports by browser, O/S, user, and time reports. I am not sure it is updated for the latest browsers and platforms. But it does allow for recoding data, so you should be able to get the results you need.

Yes it is. I've always installed it using the package manager for my systems. – BillThor Feb 18 '11 at 04:47

Thanks Hrvoje, I have seen Piwik, and it looks quite impressive. Didn't know it could get input from log files. Will definitely check that out! – rlovtang Feb 17 '11 at 20:05
