www.awstats.org/repositorydocs
AWStats is a log file analyzer that reads a website’s web server access logs and produces statistics such as visits, pages and hosts. It is written in Perl and runs either as a CGI program, which a web server starts for each request, or from the command line, where a scheduler can update the statistics. The distribution is a tarball of Perl scripts and modules under the GNU General Public License. The project’s first version dates from 2000, and its copyright line names Laurent Destailleur.
Worth knowing
The project states that it is deprecated and no longer actively developed, and it recommends migrating to Matomo Log Analytics. The server needs a Perl interpreter.
