'''AWStats''' ('''Advanced Web Statistics''') is an [[Open-source software|open source]] [[Web analytics]] reporting tool, suitable for analyzing [[Server log|data]] from [[Internet]] services such as [[web server|web]], [[streaming media]], [[mail server|mail]], and [[File Transfer Protocol|FTP]] servers. AWStats [[parser|parses]] and analyzes [[server log]] files, producing [[HTML]] reports. Data is visually presented within reports by tables and bar graphs. Static reports can be created through a command line interface, and on-demand reporting is supported through a Web browser [[Common Gateway Interface|CGI]] program.<ref name="CALOMEL">{{cite web | url = https://calomel.org/ | title = Awstats: static generated reports of web logs | date = 2012-03-21 | publisher = CALOMEL | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20150317142541/https://calomel.org/ | archive-date = 2015-03-17 | access-date = 2015-02-12 | url-status = bot: unknown }}</ref>
