What real-time log analyzer can you suggest for Apache access and error logs?

There is a list of web analytics software on WikiPedia, but it would be great to hear opinions from people with experience without having to try all of them.

Please don't suggest Google Analytics or any other hosted/JavaScript analytics suites, already using them, GA is not real-time and it is missing some data that the logs show. For example 404 errors, script errors, the full query-string of the referral, IP addresses, visitor path through the website, etc ...

If you're looking for an offline analyzer, I quite like Sawmill:
www.sawmill.co.uk
It analyses all sorts of logs, including apache. Has a free trial period.

GoAccess is a free text/curses based log analyzer similar to "top".

Piwik is a good choice (better than awstats, in my opinion)

This might seem like a bit of overkill, but Splunk offers web log analyzing and much, much more.

ChartBeat a very interesting service, it is actually much more than log analyst - more like a view of the buzz your blog creates, in real-time.
Another tool that shows real-time Apache log streams I found, called A Live Log.

AWStats is a good open source solution.

Also see www.awstats.org and github.com/eldy/awstats

I was using Urchin before I switched to Google Analyics. The Urchin Project no longer exists.
