I have used both awstats and webalizer. Webalizer is probably more
secure out of the gate, but awstats creates a nicer stats page and can
be used securely. I installed it into /usr/local/ and then created a
script to run via cron job and build a static page twice a day for
checking stats like:
---------------------
#!/bin/bash
perl /usr/local/awstats/awstats.pl -config=<your_domain> -update
perl /usr/local/awstats/awstats.pl -config=<your_domain> -output
-staticlinks > \
/root/web/stats.html
--------------------
That will build a page (stats.html) in /root/web/ for later viewing. It
was an easy way around the security concerns I have seen when running
awstats CGI.
