[thelist] Third-party stats recommendation

:> I've recently had some problems with WebTrendsLive and am looking to use

:We use Webalizer <http://www.mrunix.net/webalizer/> and it works pretty
:tracked 'Visits' (for the Marketing Folk) - some of the others, like Analog
:don't.

Are these stats software accurate? I mean, as referred to the marketing
folks tracking visits - are these accurate in tracking visits? Is it
possible that some are overlook? If yes, what would be the approximate %?
If a HP was to bill for 4.5Gig of additional bandwidth transfer (and email
transfer or ftp transfer can't account for it), could it be possible that
such could be additional visitors to site and not be accounted for by web
stats? How does one go about monitoring *bandwidth* transfer then?
