The much touted Gatineau and has been rolled out in competition to Google’s free analytics package - Google Analytics (formally Urchin). Ian and Justin point out that “Project Gatineau’s web analytics are useful to sites of all sizes - from smaller sites that can’t afford an expensive web analytics solution to larger sites looking for a boost in their web analytics capabilities.

Gatineau Web Analytics Features are said to include
** Click and visitor tracking reports
