The "unique visitor count" question arise twice a month... I think every
possible answer was given.
In any case it's always better to read docs *before* problems, so you can
show a lot of wizardry: an "expert" is just who reads manuals before you :-)

REQINCLUDE * # include every file

This can make a very huge file, but you can see only your requests along
with dates.
Can also be useful to sort by DATE instead by REQUESTS.
To see just requests for GIFs and JPGs set
REQEXCLUDE * # exclude all
REQINCLUDE *.gif, *.jpg

Be careful deleting files: they can be linked elsewhere on the Net, so
deleting them you can cut any link to your site.
Better to replace them with a "jump" page going to main index. If you're
really short of space ask your provider to set up a customized 404 error
driving visitors to main page. This can be done in Apache simply adding
this line to the httpd config file:
ErrorDocument 404 /err/my404.html
Our ISP company leases traffic instead of hard-disk space, so we suggest
our customers to avoid deletions.
However it's better to improve the HTML code of your pages instead of
delete them: to clean by hand a FrontPage document can reduce its size
(thus downloading speed) of 30% or more.
My site has 1100 entries (480 pages, 380 images, and a lot of scripts) and
it's still at 10 Mb.
There are lots of other tips: for example, if your background is
called "background_with_pink_and_red_flowers.jpg", you can save 35 bytes
every page renaming it simply as "b.jpg". Not a lot, but if the page has
1,000,000 visitors/day your traffic decrease of 35 Mb/day, and on a 700
pages site (if every page has same background) you can save 24 kb: the size
of an average page.
Moreover, to reuse same images make the site faster, because they are
cached by browsers.

FLOORS are listed in the "Quick Reference" page:
HOSTFLOOR, ORGFLOOR, DOMFLOOR, REQFLOOR, DIRFLOOR, TYPEFLOOR, REDIRFLOOR,
FAILFLOOR, REFFLOOR, REFSITEFLOOR, SEARCHQUERYFLOOR, SEARCHWORDFLOOR,
REDIRREFFLOOR, FAILREFFLOOR, FULLBROWFLOOR, BROWFLOOR, OSFLOOR, VHOSTFLOOR,
USERFLOOR, FAILUSERFLOOR, STATUSFLOOR
REQARGSFLOOR, REDIRARGSFLOOR, FAILARGSFLOOR, REFARGSFLOOR,
REDIRREFARGSFLOOR, FAILREFARGSFLOOR, SUBDIRFLOOR, SUBDOMFLOOR, SUBORGFLOOR,
SUBTYPEFLOOR, SUBBROWFLOOR, SUBOSFLOOR, REFDIRFLOOR
And everyone can be set to 0r to show *all* requests.
To use 0 floors gives always giant pages, sometimes many megabytes, so it's
better to activate only a report at a time (and this is why I suggest
Stephen to split the output on separate pages)
Hope this helps!
