-Unique Visitor:
- A unique visitor is a host that has made at least 1 hit
-on 1 page of your web site during the current period shown by the report.
-If this host make several visits during this period, it is counted only once.
-The period shown by AWStats reports is by default the current month.
-However if you use AWStats as a CGI you can click on the "year" link to have a report for all the year.
-In a such report, period is full year, so Unique Visitors are number of hosts that have made at least 1 hit
-on 1 page of your web site during those year.
-
-
-Visits:
-Number of visits made by all visitors.
-Think "session" here, say a unique IP accesses a page, and then requests three others without an hour
-between any of the requests, all of the "pages" are included in the visit, therefore you should expect
-multiple pages per visit and multiple visits per unique visitor (assuming that some of the unique IPs are
-logged with more than an hour between requests)
-
-
-Pages:
-The number of "pages" logged. Only files that don't match an entry in the NotPageList config
-parameter (and match an entry of OnlyFiles config parameter if used) are counted as "Pages".
-Usually pages are reserved for HTML files or CGI files, not images nor other files requested as a result
-of loading a "Page" (like js,css... files).
-
-
-Hits:
-Any files requested from the server (including files that are "Pages") except those that match
-the SkipFiles config parameter.
-
-
-Bandwith:
-Total number of bytes downloaded.
-
-
-Entry Page:
-First page viewed by a visitor during its visit.
-Note: When a visit started at end of month to end at beginning of next month,
-you might have an Entry page for the month report and no Exit pages.
-That's why Entry pages can be different than Exit pages.
-
-
-Exit Page:
-Last page viewed by a visitor during its visit.
-Note: When a visit started at end of month to end at beginning of next month,
-you might have an Entry page for the month report and no Exit pages.
-That's why Entry pages can be different than Exit pages.
-
-
-Session Duration:
-The time a visitor spent on your site for each visit.
-Some Visits durations are 'unknown' because they can't always be calculated. This is the major reason for this:
-- Visit was not finished when 'update' occured.
-- Visit started the last hour (after 23:00) of the last day of a month (A technical reason prevents AWStats from
-calculating duration of such sessions).

-Grabber:
-A browser that is used primarily for copying locally an entire site. These include
-for example "teleport", "webcapture", "webcopier"...
