I was looking at:

http://blog.corunet.com/english/the-definitive-heatmap

it describes one method for creating a heat map (a visualization of
where users click on a website).

The solution them employ requires sending one HttpRequest to your
server for each click. This sounds potentially very expensive.

Would it be possible to aggregate this data client side, and then
every X seconds or clicks? Can we store state across page refreshes?
Would something like AMASS be helpful here?

More over, is this just as simple to track as:

$(document).each().click(function () { // magic function to record x,y
click data });
setTimer(XXX, jQuery.magicSendFunction())

Cheers,
-Mark
