Web server log analysis is a fairly mature field at this point. AWStats, 
<http://www.awstats.org/>, another popular open source log analyzer, has 
had more recent development effort than Analog. But even they are 
running out of features to add and have dramatically slowed their 
development efforts.

The same is true of the commercial products. There hasn't been much 
innovation since ClickTracks came out several years ago. These days 
changes are mostly limited to making sure that the occasional new web 
browser has their agent string properly parsed.

Dr. Seuss books . . . can be read and enjoyed on several levels. For
example, 'One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish' can be deconstructed
as a searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system.
