I like Webalizer.  You can see an example at http://www.befunk.com/stats/.

It's pretty easy to set up and understands standard web logs as well as apache
extended ones and xferlog-style FTP logs.

If you need something with more in-depth configuration, Analog is nice too, but
it's usually overkill for what I do.
