LL Owners what do you think about...

I think a lot of link list owners are very suspicious about any kind of script call on a page. I could cause you problems.

I have Wusage running on one of my boxes and it gives individual page hits complete with referrer information.

When you enter the site it put in a code similar to this at the top

<script>
<!--
document.cookie='atref=noref$#; path=/;'
// -->
</script>

I am using the script on www.acalinks.com where you can check out a live example (just view source).

I do have webalizer but oh my god that seems so outdated and I can only see the top30 referers by URL (not domain)

Cookies are a bad idea. Text that says "script" in the source is also a bad idea.

The most efficient way to do this is to get a stats program on the machine that affects everything globally. If you can't do that, consider executing a php file with an image call, like this:

<img src="path/to/trackingscript.php">

If you do it this way the script will get executed, but you're less likely to have anything on the page that might be considered an active threat. I haven't done it myself (I have stats on my box) but I've heard this is an acceptable practice by many.
