Hi Ian,

zope's logs are in a pretty standard format so most of your loganalyzers
should handle them well and several of them can be customized to ignore
certain ips or urls.

i've been told that http://www.webalizer.org/ is pretty nice.

a zope web logs analyzer that makes images with PIL integrated into the
control panel, is on my list of things to do although its pretty low at
the moment.

Cheers
