GREETINGS!
I have recently (as in today) started using Analog...and I have some
questions on interpreting the data. I have copied some of the confusion
with my questions in parentheses next to them. I read over the FAQ as well
as read "What the Results Mean" on the homepage...and I must admit...I am
still confused! If any one can offer some support...it would be most
appreciated. Thanks!

Program started at Sat-08-Jul-2000 02:04.
Analysed requests from Sat-01-Jul-2000 08:08 to Fri-07-Jul-2000 20:39 (6.5
days).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
General Summary
� Successful requests: 3,645 (What does this number refer to? I notice
there is also "successful requests for pages", "distinct files requested".
What is the difference? How is the number calculated? Does one refer to
the homepage only and the other the homepages plus the pages within the
site?)
� Average successful requests per day: 558
� Successful requests for pages: 440 (This number is so far from being
3,645...I have no idea where this number comes from! How is this different
from the "successful requests"?)
� Average successful requests for pages per day: 67
� Failed requests: 36
� Distinct files requested: 116 (What is this?)
� Distinct hosts served: 162 (Is this how many people log on to the site
from different hosts? As in AOL, Mindspring, Ameritech...are those the
"distinct hosts"?)
� Data transferred: 19,032 kbytes
� Average data transferred per day: 2,918 kbytes
-----------------------------
Further down in the log...the following appears:
-----------------------------
Directory Report
Listing directories with at least 1 request, sorted by the number of
requests.
#reqs: %bytes: directory
-----: ------: ---------
2821: 28.84%: [root directory]
207: 4.44%: /Employment/
117: 21.27%: /What_s_New/
91: 24.60%: /Program_Photos/
84: 2.09%: /Contact_Us/
75: 3.91%: /Why_Mobile/
75: 4.19%: /event/
67: 3.44%: /Who_We_Are/
58: 3.57%: /mobile/
50: 3.65%: /Sampling_Services/
---------------------------------------------------
Here...it appears that this is a breakdown of the "Successful Requests"
stated in the General Information. So, by looking at it, I cannot really
tell which of the pages was accessed the most since it is counting all the
requests that were successful...and not just the page requests. Correct?
What I am looking for is where to look for the information that shows how
many people visited my Web site. There are so many numbers that don't agree
with one another...that I am not sure which one to look at!
Thanks for all your help! I am new to this...and if you could put your
replies in the most "basic" english as possible...it would help me greatly!
~ Maggie :)
