First off, there's no way to know your users' identities without
tracking them yourself using server-side code, and IMHO this would be
a serious privacy problem.

As for total user numbers... Although Google recommends using the user
counts shown on your directory entries, it's common knowledge that
this is completely unreliable. Your best option is to use some
external analytics package; unsurprisingly, Google Analytics is a
popular one.

And here's a great article by Matt on doing it more precisely:
