    I need one for my new blog.
    Something that shows uniques, visits, hits, bandwith used, etc.
    Help?

    Very nice, I like google.com/analytics! awstat is good also, PERL is a server side scripting language.

    StateCounter is also a good option. It provies lots of details [not bandwith]. You may try it.

    Im just interested in Awstats right now.
    So im wondering how do i get PERL in my PATH?
    it tells me to do so when i try to install.
    a walkthrough would be good.

    www.statcounter.com is also a good one. You can even have reports emailed to you on a regular basis.

    I would too recommend google analytics. Bandwidth can only be measured on the server so you might want to have different program for that.

    I've used all of them. go with google analytics OR extremetracker.
    i like extreme better due to the simple interface but google does do more analytics

    Google's is great (formerly Urchin) but Mint is nice and easy if you dont need all the bells and whistles
