Awstats is a great tool to check site visitors at the server level. The dashboard is way simpler than Google Analytics, and if you are confused about what you see on Analytics, then use Awstats, as it gives a clearer perspective on your visitor data.
It also shows everything from bots and other crawlers, which is a good thing to check whether your site is bombarded by non human visits.
Anyways, we use Awstats primarily for comparing data from Google Analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Awstats takes stats at server level. This is a good option as you will no longer add any script to your website which can add a slow down to your site.

Awstats also records data usage accurately, an excellent thing if you are constantly checking out your bandwidth usage, a very good thing if you are on a limited resource. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A very good thing to determine bots, but it is not a good tool to tell whether your visitors are reading your content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Awstats is a great additional analytic tool besides your main visitor data collecting tool. It is plain basic and sometimes, I see basic stats clearly with Awstats than my main analytic tool, because it is more simple and easy to find. Not much in depth settings to tinker when checking data, just a straightforward display of what it logs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
They should at least combine or have an option to combine both ssl and http traffic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Awstats is a great and free analytic tool that has been around for some time now. It counts visits within server level, a good data to compare if you have any other analytic tool installed on the website.
Awstats tracks unique visits within 1 hour, if a visitor ends up on your site again after an hour, that will count as 2.
What I do like about Awstats is that it can better recognize unknown bots by tracking a visitors behaviour.
It can also record visitors that are blocking Javascript codes of other analytic tools like Google Analytics. So having Awstats is a really good thing to compare data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
