For each page served, our webserver creates two cookies with unique IDs.
One is persistent (to "identify" v***tors), and the other expires 30
minutes after the end of the last page requested (to "identify" v***ts). I
need to count the number of individual instances for each cookie over a
given period.
By using the USERREPINCLUDE argument, I can get a Users report which tells
me how many pages/requests/bytes have been accessed by one or the other of
these, but that's not what I'm looking for. The only way I can do it at the
moment is to run Analog twice (once for each cookie) and refer to the [not
listed: XXX,XXX users] note at the end of each report.
The output (values abbreviated for clarity) is:
pages: user
-----: ----
1087: "idl_visitor=xxx; idl_visit=yyy"
686: "idl_visitor=xxx; idl_visit=yyy"
679: "idl_visitor=xxx; idl_visit=yyy"
679: "idl_visitor=xxx; idl_visit=yyy"
674: "idl_visitor=xxx; idl_visit=yyy"
660: "idl_visitor=xxx; idl_visit=yyy"
640: "idl_visitor=xxx; idl_visit=yyy"
636: "idl_visitor=xxx; idl_visit=yyy"
607: "idl_visitor=xxx; idl_visit=yyy"
584: "idl_visitor=xxx; idl_visit=yyy"
69725: [not listed: 110,732 users]
What I'd like is something like:
instances: user
---------: ----
123087: idl_visitor
834586: idl_visit
So, two questions:
1. How can I count the number of instances of a cookie?
2. How can I run Analog once and get the same report twice with two
different *INCLUDE values?
many thanks, Adam
