As I said before, if the remember me option is checked, they technically aren't logging in, right? I think what you're looking for is more along the lines of what Google Analytics already does, but anonymously. Perhaps what you need to do is to add a custom logging feature to your web app that keeps track of user activity for the specific pages in which you're interested. Just make a table for the page or function you want to track and then insert auth_user.id and datetime every time it's accessed. Seems simple enough (probably less than 10 lines of code).
