Thanks, that's helpful because I can see the individuals and how many times 
they accessed:
The 'plyr' solution of Karl Ove Hufthammer gives me the exact summary 
statistics that I'm looking for.

Hi: I think below does what you want but it doesn't come out formatted very 
nicely. Maybe someone can show you
the formatting ? Good luck.

table.users <- read.table(textConnection("Date UserName Machine
2008-11-25     John     641
2008-11-25    Clive     611
2008-11-25   Jeremy     641
2008-11-25     Walt     722
2008-11-25     Tony     645
2008-11-26     Tony     645
2008-11-26     Tony     641
2008-11-26     Tony     641
2008-11-26     Walt     641
2008-11-26     Walt     645
2008-11-30     John     641
2008-11-30    Clive     611
2008-11-30     Tony     641
2008-11-30     John     641
2008-11-30     John     641"),header=TRUE,as.is=TRUE)

print(table.users)
print(str(table.users))

lapply(split(table.users,table.users$Date),function(.df) {
    table(.df$Machine)
})

lapply(split(table.users,table.users$Date),function(.df) {
    table(.df$UserName)
})

Use the 'plyr' package:

library(plyr)
ddply(table.users, .(Date), summarise,
users=length(unique(Username)),
machines=length(unique(Machine)))
