I did but initially discarded it because it is a third-party hosted 
service which I didn't want.  I see now that you can still buy the 
software to run on your own system but it does seem to require 
JavaScript tracking to be installed on each page.  I was really hoping 
for a logfile only solution.  (I should have mentioned that before.)

Thanks,
