I am currently working out how to solve that, too. :-)

I already have a hack working (not yet checked in, though) that will patch
the http_request objects in a way that they log in the combined log format
(with referrers and user-agent info). I currently investigate how
complicated it would be to get Apache pass on the client address in a
header, so I could use that in the logging to replace the apache machine
header.

This would allow me to create full combined logs for the machine and so
split that up to produce statistics for user directories with all
informations that would be available from the apache machine.

Actually I don't like running webalizer on the apache machine because
there it doesn't have the rewritten addresses. Since I use manila style
host names, I get a lot access to stuff like /weblog/index.html - but
can't tell wether that's for hugo.muensterland.org, witch.muensterland.org
or pyds.muensterland.org :-/
