IRStats

IRStats is a flexible statistics package which allows easy processing of accesses to fulltext and abstract pages of eprints.

Technical Overview

The following is a quick tour of IRStats.

Parameters

IRStats output depends on four parameters, which need to be passed as cgi parameters if called through a web browser, or in a hash if called through the Perl API. These are:

Start Date and End Date

Date parameters are implemented as separate day, month and year parameters, so these two parameters are actually six (start_day, start_month, start_year, end_day, end_month, end_year). Any statistics outside this daterange are ignored.
