Howdie,
I need an application that can analyze my log files. I'd prefer it if it weren't a server-side application. I have downloaded weblog exprt lite but it has a lack of features :(

Are there any common programs that people are using to analyse their webstats?

If anyone out there can point me in the right direction of some open-source/free applications; that would be greatly appreciated :)

Thanks
James

I don't think there is a client-side solution to your problem. I use Awstats for checking my web logs, but I've heard Shortstat is pretty good, too (although Awstats gives lots more detail).

I would be suprised to hear that a log analyser exists that is not a server application. The only thing I could imagine that would come close would be an external application that has been configured and granted access to certain parts of the box with the web server on it. You'd still need a level of access I'm assuming you don't have in order to set it all up though.

You could export log files and parse them with JavaScript, for example. Just a thought, the original poster may be meaning something completely different.
