Thanks a ton for the help, I'll look into that of course, but my main
question had to do with stats tracking that was outside of any Google
API. A normal website generates logs on the web server. Those logs are
usually in a W3C compliant format. They can be imported into stats
systems such as SmarterStats which would then generate charts/views/etc
of the stats for the client to see.
Is there any good way to accommodate the same type of stats tracking
when a site is specifically coded in Flex (i.e. no inherent
request/response)? (Mainly so a customer who is used to using
SmarterStats could continue doing so, and keep in mind that SmarterStats
parses W3C compliant logs so the main issue I have is Flex stats
tracking using W3C compliant logging).
Thanks,

Here's an article about integrating flash with google analytics, it
should be pretty simple to port to as3 and flex.

Hello,
I've been tasked with figuring out what it would take to provide
website statistics (such as unique visitors, returning visitors,
page accesses, etc) for a Flex-based website. Obviously the
entry-point will generate standard logs, but if the Flex app uses
view-states which mimic page "loads", then the web server will
never see those view-state changes.
We have ideas such as when a view-state changes, we would send a
blind http call to a page on the server to act as a page "load" so
the web server logs will be updated as such, but that seems quite
cumbersome and not really the right way of doing it.
Can anyone point me to any information on this? I understand that
we can tie into Google Analytics, but that's mainly because Google
exposes an API for it. What about other stats systems like
SmarterStats which handles the standard W3C logging format
(usually generated by the web server in a standard
request/response setting)?
Thanks so much!!
