We collect Apache log files from all download servers, parse them to extract entries when somebody downloaded catalog.xml.gz file i.e. Update Center which is by default scheduled to happen on a weekly basis and then store the records to database. Every GET request sends unique ID identifying single NetBeans installation which we then use to distinguish users from each other and if we identify the same ID in the DB twice in a month we increment the counter of unique active users. :)
