Hi, I am searching for an analytics alternative to Urchin and Google Analytics. It needs to be cookie based rather than log based so that we can separate bots from human traffic. This is a key requirement. Any ideas?

I like WebSideStory but they have been bought by Omniture - we are installing that right now and it seems really good.

I have ben using statcounter for years. Free but upi can expand the log by paying.

he needs cookie based... and it is log file based

You can also look into clicktracks. You can set it to use persistant cookies. It is a little cheaper than omniture, but doesn't have as many features
