Thoughts on Search Analytics?

Hi,

I'd like to solicit your thoughts about Search Analytics if you are  doing any 
sort of analysis/reporting of search logs or click stream or  anything related.

* Which information or reports do you find the most useful and why?
* Which reports would you like to have, but don't have for whatever  reason 
(don't have the needed data, or it's too hard to produce such  reports, or ...)
* Which tool(s) or service(s) do you use and find the most useful?

I'm preparing a presentation on the topic of Search Analytics, so I'm  trying to 

solicit opinions, practices, desires, etc. on this topic.

Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.  If you could reply  directly, that 
would be great, since this may be a bit OT for the list.

Thanks!
Otis

When I ran the search engine at Feedster, I wrote a perl script that ran nightly and gave me:

total number of searches
total number of searches per hour
N most frequent searches
max time for a search
min time for a search
mean time for searches
median time for searches
N slowest searches
warnings
errors

all the above per index (core in SOLR)

The script generated a text file (for me) and an Excel spreadsheet (for the management)

In other words, much like what one gets in Google Analytics?

Could you please elaborate and be more specific about this last one?

Thanks!
