I'm looking for a traffic sensor and although I know there are tons for sale, the ones I've looked at (and purchased..) are not doing all that I need them to do. Perhaps I am looking in the wrong places?

Basically I'm looking for full *daily* stats. I don't need 60 days history or 30 days history, just so long as I get my info sent to me each night or morning. I don't need anything that interacts with visitors or gives LM or notecard.

Here's what i want:

Traffic Visitor Lister: Counts each and every visitor, knows how many total *unique* visitors have visited per 24 hour period. Outputs this list of avatar names to my email each day, no matter HOW many visitors were there (one I bought only sends the first 100...this is not acceptable).

IM's me (only when i'm online) that an avatar has been detected in range. (i don't need it to tell me when the avi leaves. just that an avi has arrived.)

Time spent in area: How much total time each avatar spent in the area per day; this info would be sent in the daily emailed list. Along with the times (although this is not totally necessary, it would be nice).

For instance: an entry could look like this (if there were 2 visits): Sera Lok, 0042 minutes, 10:00 AM - 10:10 AM, 11:00 AM - 11:32 AM

If emailing a complete list of visitors per day with accompanying info is not possible, or not the best way to do it, I would also go for something that I could order the daily lists from via a menu or chat command ( I just assumed emailing a daily list would be easier since it wouldn't have to store that day after it was done-- or maybe it could store it for 2-3 days in case there was an email error, etc.. Yes, actually, come to think of it, I'd want some way to retrieve about 3-7 days' info in case of SL errors.. maybe someone who knows about databases could create something i could look at on a webpage... that would be awesome..

I bought a system that I like quite a lot because it stores a lot of info and claims to be very stable, but it doesn't tell me unique visitors, only TOTAL visitors, which is not very helpful to me.

Now, all this in one thing would be great, but if anyone knows of a unique visitor traffic sensor that simply keeps track of *names* of avatars who visited, I would appreciate knowing where that is too.

So... any suggestions??

If you are a scripter and are confident you can make this work, IM me inworld or in this thread or drop me a notecard.

ok, after putting on some reality glasses i have revised my needs.

-Unique Visitor List gathers & emails complete list of unique visitors (over several emails is fine, can be different times of day so long as an email is sent at midnight SLT to close out the day). It would be nice if this information could be stored for retrieval later, maybe 2-7 days worth. But not required.

-Ability to scan a customizable range of meters.

-Running counter of number of unique visitors per day that can be accessed with a menu or channel command that spans at least a week. Even more would be fantastic. (i.e., i click the thing and select "history" button, and it gives me a list like this:

6.23.08 - 55 unique visitors
6.24.08 - 47 unique visitors
6.25.08 - 71 unique visitors

I can't think of anything else right now. If you are an accomplished scripter who knows how & wants to do this, please send me a notecard or IM with your bid.
