Hi,
    I recommend webalizer[1]. IMHO that's a good log file analysis
tool. Available for IIS, Apache, et cetera.

Subject: Web log file analysis tool


| Hi!
| Currently, I'm looking for a web log file analysis tool which does 
not
| cause too much traffic/load on our LAMPP web servers.
| I've tried hobbit monitor (http://*hobbit*mon.sourceforge.net), but 
was
| disappointed, since the script I needed to search for suspicious
| patterns (bb-msgs.pl) was not part of the main package.
| I've also installed awstats (http://awstats.sourceforge.net/) which 
uses
| worms.pm to look for suspicious windows worms.
| However, I would love to find a plugin for awstats (or another 
program)
| that could also detect XSS attempts - as far as this is possible 
using
| only Apache log files.
| Thank you very much in advance.
| Yours sincerely,
| Anja Hofmann
