FYI, it is possible to manually update your statistics at your leisure. From your root directory (below public_html), go to the tmp folder, then the awstats folder, and open awstats.example.com.conf. Look for the line that reads
Code:
AllowToUpdateStatsFromBrowser=0
If this is set to zero, Awstats is set to update every 24 hours or so by the server (I assume there is a task scheduler somewhere). If you change this to
Code:
AllowToUpdateStatsFromBrowser=1
then AWStats add a button on report page to allow to "update" statistics from a web browser as often as you'd like. I would only do this if you want to check you statistics more than once per day. Be sure to read the comments above that line in the file so that you understand exactly what you are doing.
