Peastat is a user-friendly web stats analyzer that provides simple and clear data analysis. It helps to understand and track website traffic patterns, visitor behavior, and monitor site performance effortlessly.
Peastat is a free and open-source web stats analyzer that provides live and real-time summaries of recent user activity. Unlike other web stats tools like Analog, Webalizer, AWStats, and Urchin, Peastat doesn't focus on trend analysis but rather on what your users are doing at present.
The installation process is straightforward and includes three simple steps: configuring the 'logfile' and 'rooturl' values, uploading peastat.py to a place where it can be executed on your web server, and making peastat.py executable by setting its permissions to 755.
To use Peastat, you can simply point your browser to the designated URL, or you can use your Atom-enabled newsreader to monitor recent activity. The application, instructions, and configuration are included in one file, and no database is required.
Peastat comes with several useful features, including referrer tracking with search engine query analysis, simple path analysis, and cached DNS lookups. You don't need to deal with JavaScript bugs or PHP includes, making it a simple and hassle-free tool.
In the latest release, Peastat has added several improvements and enhancements, including stopping rewarding referrer spam, adding a simple AJAX library for future use, handling user agents whose names include escaped quotes, recognizing Yahoo searches, handling URLs with ampersands correctly, and improving error handling on tailing log file. It also distinguishes links to visited IP details pages with CSS and has been renamed from peastat.py to pea.py.
To use Peastat, you need Python 2.1+ available as CGI and read access to your log files, in Apache extended/combined format. Overall, Peastat is an effective tool that provides real-time summaries of recent user activity, making it ideal for those who want to focus on what their users are doing at present.
