Advanced VISIBLE Statistics Script

[G.9]

I have noticed on all the counter tutorials that the counter counts for any page it is on... well, I have a challenge for your php pros out there.


Make an easy-to-install statistics script that displays the following information:

Parked Domain Statistics (site.com)
1. Unique Hits
2. Total Hits
3. Hits this Month
4. Hits this Week
5. Hits Today
6. Complete file size
7. Number of files
8. Number of directories
9. Bandwidth Usage

Subdomain Statistics (subdomain.site.com)
1. Unique Hits
2. Total Hits
3. Hits this Month
4. Hits this Week
5. Hits Today
6. Complete file size
7. Number of files
8. Number of directories
9. Bandwidth Usage

Page Statistics
1. Unique Hits
2. Total Hits
3. Hits this month
4. Hits this week
5. Hits today
6. File size
7. Bandwidth Usage

Visitor Statistics
1. Operating System
2. Browser
3. IP Address
4. Last time visited
5. Visitors online
6. Hits for visitor total
7. Hits for visitor this month
8. Hits from visitory this week
9. Hits from visitor today
10. Bandwidth Consumed Today
11. Disk Space Viewed Today


Make a statistics script that can do this, and you also make history. A fun challenge for all you PHP gurus.


Please make a tutorial on how to do this as well, as I'd like to know how but lack the PHP experience to do so, and as a bonus, a .zip file for easy extraction and installation.


Some of you may be asking what the point of having all these statistics is. But then, what is the point of posting statistics at all? Obviously to make a page look more appealing, complicated, and technical.


If someone could do this, I would be very grateful!

alright, that is a crapload of work to do, and i'm pretty sure that most of us dont have the time to spend developing that. I'm sure, however, that you could employ a coder if you post in the job offers section.

You know, I'm getting that response everywhere. Not that I'm suprised... it is a lot of work to do. Oh well...

I'm sure theres a few tuts out there for making stats. you could take those, and learn the basics. Then you could fiddle around with the rest of it. I would google it.

Been there, done that. I think I'll start with a simple question for starters... I went through a bunch of tutorials, but none of them gave hit counters for a specific domain. It was merely the page the counter was displayed on. Is there a way to measure hits per domain/sub domain, or is it only possible for specific pages alone?

That really is a LOT of work. It involves a tonne of queries, data searching, data storing, loads of different algorithms for analysing the data and then a user interface.

That's just simplifying it for a beginner!

I doubt you'll get many people interested in doing it without them getting something in return. Either that or you get lucky and find someone that's itching to do some PHP coding and has a lot of time on their hands.

I thought about doing something like that recently but then I changed my mind because it's too big a project to juggle between several others I've got going.

I see... oh well, I guess this is something I should put on my checklist to learn in the future.
