We are using Apache with session cookies.
I've defined the cookie as %u in the log format and get a nice
count
of the number of unique session cookies this way.
Here is what I am assuming:
The cookies are set to not expire, so the unless
the user deletes the cookie
between sessions, the number
of unique session cookies should correspond
roughly to "minimum" number of unique vistors during
the reporting period.
In the doc it mentions that cookies are not a reliable way to
count visitors.
But is there any reason that number of unique session cookies
won't give me
a minimum number of unique visitors?
