You'll need a more specific LOGFORMAT, if that's possible. The
LOGFORMAT needs to look for the cookie name that you want to track and
dumb the rest of the cookies. Something like this (within the cookie
field) might do the trick:
%jidl_visitor=%u;%j

You can't. You can hijack another variable, such as the virtual host
one, if you don't need it, and use the Virtual Host Report to track
the other field. Perhaps something like this in your LOGFORMAT:
%jidl_visitor=%u;%jidl_visit=%v;%j
Also, you can set the FLOOR for the User (and VHost) reports to
something very large to get all the values totaled in the [not listed]
section. In your report above USERFLOOR 2000r would do the trick.
