    I used self made script coz it effective

    Bear in mind that this code is an example of how to create a script that counts all impressions done by humans. Since robots don’t execute JavaScript code, only human impressions count.

    Firstly create the table in your MySQL database by executing this query:

    CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `days_impressions` (
    `day` date NOT NULL,
    `impressions` int(11) NOT NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY (`day`),
    KEY `impressions` (`impressions`)
    )


    Then open your text editor and place this code:


    <?php
    $server = “localhost”;
    $user = “user”;
    $dbase = “database”;
    $passwd = “password”;

    $days_impr = “days_impressions”;

    //function that reports fatal errors in MySQL instead of showing them as output
    if (!function_exists(’fatal_error_report’))
    {
    function fatal_error_report($line,$file)
    {
    //fatal_error_report(__line__,__FILE__);
    $to = “bugs@yourserver.com”;
    $subject = “Fatal error”;
    $ip = $_SERVER[’REMOTE_ADDR’];
    $messaget= ‘<html><body><h1>Fatal error has occured</h1><br />Details:<br />’.$file.” on line “.$line.” with this error “.mysql_error().’<br />Page accessed: <b>’.$_SERVER[’REQUEST_URI’].’</b>. IP: <b>’.$ip.’</b></body></html>’;
    $postmast= “postmaster@yourserver.com”;
    $headers = “From: “.$postmast. “\n” .
    “X-Mailer: PHP/” . phpversion() . “\n” .
    “MIME-Version: 1.0\n” .
    “Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8\n” .
    “Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n”;
    mail($to, $subject, $messaget, $headers);
    die ();
    }
    //end of error reporting function
    }

    $link = mysql_connect($server, $user, $passwd)
    or fatal_error_report(__line__,__FILE__);

    mysql_select_db($dbase)
    or fatal_error_report(__line__,__FILE__);

    $date = date(”Y-m-d”);

    $found = 0;
    $result = mysql_query(”select * from $days_impr where day = ‘$date’ limit 1;”, $link)
    or fatal_error_report(__line__,__FILE__);
    if (mysql_num_rows($result))
    while ($qry = mysql_fetch_array($result))
    $found = 1;

    if($found==1)
    {
    $result = mysql_query(”update $days_impr set impressions = impressions + 1 where day = ‘$date’ limit 1;”, $link)
    or fatal_error_report(__line__,__FILE__);
    }
    else
    {
    $result = mysql_query(”insert into $days_impr values ( ‘$date’ , ‘1′)”, $link)
    or fatal_error_report(__line__,__FILE__);
    }

    mysql_close();
    ?>

    Don’t forget to modify these variables’ values:

    $server, $user, $dbase, $passwd, $postmast, $to


    Once you have done this, save the file as, for example, “stats.php”. Then place this code in all pages that are available to visitors:

    <script src="http://www.yourserver.com/statistics/stats.php" type="text/javascript">
    </script>
