Allowing public access to AW Stats??

[StrictlyNames]

I have a domain and site that I want to sell, and would like to offer public access to my AW Stats. Anyone know how to do this... site management is CPanel.

Thanks,
Dave

That is a good question.

You can just save the pages as html pages and upload them to your server. Its a lot safer and secure that way.

Cool, Thanks Byalik.

Or, you could just take a screenshot and use that.

But also a lot of work, takes a lot of time, and non-real-time stats.

the problem with these are its easy to fake (change the numbers)

its far more credible to give access to your live stats, but I haven't been able to do it successfully as of yet

Some non-Cpanel control panels can do public viewing of web stats. Why dont you try Free counter sites.

I've been wondering this too.. I've seen alot of people do this

I had to do something like this before, it wasn't with AW, but I don't see why it wouldn't work the same. I wrote a Perl script that would fetch the stats site and return the html. You can set it up so all important info is stored outside the Public HTML directory. Even though technically this could be faked, it is always up to date, it's a script (stats.cgi looks better than stats.html), and after the initial set up, it's hands free.

If some people are interested in getting it to work with AW, I will modify my script and distribute it to anyone who wants it.

I wrote a script that lets me display stats of a domain in real time. This will work only if you have cpanel installed.

It allows people to view AWstats securely without login.

You can see a demo at http://www.adsensesucks.com/stats

I will sell a copy of the script cheaply probably for DNF$.

I'll start thread in advertising forum for this, or you can just PM me for info

You can use this as your index.php script to get rid of the whole log in thing completely:

awesome, works great. I don't mind having a password for the stats, as long as it can be different from my actual cpanel login. Just what I was looking for.

Sending you a few F$ for your generosity.


For anyone that wants to see the results,

Looking to sell this name by the way if anyone is interested.

Thanks again,
