This software is a quick Web log analyzer.
Visitors Web Log Analyzer is a top-performing web log analyzer for Linux, Windows, and other Unix-like operating systems. What sets it apart from other software of the same category is its unique design principles, including the fact that it requires no installation. It can process up to 150,000 lines of log entries per second on fast computers (with an average log file length of around 20MB/s).
The software is designed to be executed via the command line, with html and text reports produced as output. Users can utilize the text report by piping it to 'less' and checking web stats from ssh. Additionally, Visitors supports real-time statistics with the Visitors Stream Mode (introduced with version 0.3).
One of the standout features of Visitors is that there is no need to specify the log format. It works right out of the box with Apache and most other web servers with a standard log format. More detailed information on the format can be found in the documentation.
Visitors is a portable C program, which means it can be compiled on many different systems. Binaries for Windows can be downloaded directly from the website. The produced html report is self-contained and doesn't contain any images or external CSS, making it easy to send by email to users.
Best of all, Visitors is completely free software, available under the terms of the GPL license. There is no need to pay to use it, and ISPs can take advantage of its high processing speed. For those who want a custom version created by the original author, such a service is available for a modest price by contacting antirez (at) invece.org.
