What do you mean secure this information? Hide from the general public 
or not allow any other entity ever to see? If you can deal with Google 
knowing your traffic, I'd highly suggest google analytics. Really nice 
web UI (blows AWStats out of the water), easy setup and no maintenance 
needed.

The only thing GA can't do is track non-html assets. So if you need 
statistics on large images, PDF docs, etc then it's not much use.
