    Statcounter will give you a lot of cool data which will help you analyze where recent visitors have come from, what keywords they used to find your site, which pages they visited, what countries they are from, and what browser they used to view your site. It gives you other info too but these are the main things.

    You could also sign up for a free Google account and install Google Analytics on your site which will also give you tons of data for free. Similar to Statcounter in many ways.

    I use google analytics myself but have used statcounter in the past - both are good and are essential tools in developing your site. Use the information to tweak both your pages and your seo work.

    sitemeter.com is another great site that reports statistics weekly but you can check anytime.

    I deffiantly suggest you use Google Analytics, lots of differant stats and you can set goal, etc.
    It is good for stats.
