I'm sick of every web statistics monitoring tool out there. They either give me too much information or not nearly enough - and they universally fall down in one area that is very important to me: looks. I think it's something to do with the desire to cram in as much information as possible, but I don't care about your screen resolution, OS, continent, timezone, browser plugins, search engine, last time visited, or any of the other myriad pieces of information that is made available to me.

 

So I came up with Pretty Stats - http://superpositionkitty.com/stats/

 

This is only version 0.1 (beta) of Pretty Stats, it's still missing a lot of the functionality and currently only works in the latest versions of Chrome, Opera, Firefox, and Safari. I'm hoping to release this as a package in the coming months as an add-on to Piwik (the API and back-end on which this is placed)

 

This is where you guys come in. If you have a server, the ability to follow some instructions to install Piwik, a modern browser, and a want for prettier stats - then just send me a PM or let me know in this thread if you want in on the beta test.

 

NOTE: I won't be selling this, it's going to be released under a GPL license and all that. I'm not looking to make any money off it, just trying to get a better looks stats package out there.

 

Anyway, post away if you have any ideas/feedback/etc or want in on the beta.

Very nice. Much more neater/prettier than my stats page. Stupid DreamHost Stats.

 

Will you be doing Pie Charts or anything like that? =O Now that, that'd be cool!

Well I suppose with a bit (a lot) of CSS3 hacking a pie chart would be perfectly possible. It's a good idea, something I'll definitely look into.
