Those programs are designed to provide with stats to those sites that don't
have access to web server logs. You are looking for a log analyzer like
webalizer, awstats or urchin (however, I believe none of this are coded in
PHP).

I'm writing a real server stats analyser at the moment and will be porting
the code to deal with apache logs when it's done maybe a start for you if
nothing else - do you want a copy when done?

You may want to take a look at this class. It is not really a log
analyzer but rather a base for one. What it does is to watch a given log
file.

You can ask it to retrieve the log lines to do your own analysis and
when the log is closed the class stores a sort of bookmark that
indicates the last line of the log that was analyzed.

Next time you run your log analysis script, the class is capable of
picking up where it stopped. This makes the class suitable for tasks
that are based on monitoring logs.

Currently, the class has builtin support to send the newly added log
lines to a given e-mail address. I developed this to be notified about
problems in the server that make the PHP code not work properly so I can
act promptly.

I have more applications for this class in mind like detecting users
causing excessive load in the server by using robots or some other
hacks. So, I will probably add support to parse log lines in common formats.

I think you can use it to make any kind log analisys that you want.
