I would strongly suggest you go through the pain of learning AWStats (not that much of a pain). With Google Analytics you are doing a few things.
You are adding a piece of javascript to enable the tracking - Unknown how that will affect the built in Exchange access stuff. Every page that is viewed makes a call to an off site server and that is tracked off site. ANY latency/delay/lag involved in that call will result in a lag/performance issue in the users experience. A negative user experience results in "Exchange sucks" complaints. And there are times when lag is noticeable on sites not requiring an SSL connection. I think there are page view limitations that Analytics also has. If you exceed those you have to / should discuss with Google your use. I may be remembering this part wrong.
