I'm looking for software that can analyze my Apache log files (or some other source) and tell me, from the visitors that actually bought something from my site, some profiling information; like time of their first visit, how long they spend on my website, what the original referral was, etc?

In principle a tool like Awstats provides a lot of information, but I'd like to have it filtered to individuals.

Edit: Instead of Apache log files / using IP addresses, I'm also happy to add something like php code to my site to identify returning visitors.

I found from google, Webalizer which is a fantastic, free web server log file analyzer. It is fast and generates very nice statistical reports about who is hitting your site and what they are hitting. It can be found at mrunix.net/webalizer. Good luck. It had worked well for me long time ago.

Any type of logging software such as Awstats and Webalizer do not contain the information you are after, you should take a look at various Analytics platforms and see what one is best suited for your business. I personally recommend Google Analytics but there are many more out their to test.

Please note that all links listed below and are in no particular order. Numbers have been used for styling purposes only and should not be used to determine which one is best.
