Make a counter table with a column count and update the first row of the table each time there is an unique IP address every day...
Or you can implement other rule... In your footer you will display the count db.counter(1).count # You select row 1 content that is you count You update your counter somewhere in a model, I would use db.py for that so it will be execute each request : db(db.counter.id == 1).update(count=db.counter(1).count+1) db.commit() # Don't forget to commit!! You can surround your update and commit with logic to just count users access in different situation, as I say new IP address... You may require to log IP address for this task... If you want unique visitor log, there is other tool for the task, like google analytic or if you want to stay with python and open source Piwik ( http://piwik.org/).
