[Building Sakai] Sakai Usage Stats at institution level

[Kevin P. Foote]

Plug for Adi's ctools monitor :-) Which is external to sakai. 
I think it's about as much as you could monitor sakai wise .. (well there's 
probably more) But it covers stuff you mentioned: 

'hits by tool' = most accessed tool .. you can get the idea from here..

Lots of cool geeky admin type graphs here (which is why its so cool)

https://ctstats.ds.itd.umich.edu/stats-bin/drraw.cgi?Mode=view&Dashboard=1160533679.18970&Filter=

The real info I like is the 'hits by path' and 'tts by tool' type stuff

I refer to this once and again to get ideas and add monitors to stuff
:-) HTH..
