Log file analyser for Access Log Valve output

Hi

Tomcat  5.5.23
Java 1.5.0_10

First let me say thanks to the users on this list that have answered
my (no doubt irritating) questions over the past few weeks. Thanks in
no small part to you my new application is flying along on Tomcat and
is all blinged up with AJAX, SSL certification, DataSources, logging
and all sorts of other nonsense, fantastic stuff.

At the risk of enraging some on this list I was wondering if I might
ask about viewers for the output from the Access Log Valve.

<question name='mode' value='timid'>

I have read the appropriate documentation and I understand that the
output is in some sort of standard format. I'm about to start fiddling
with the pattern attribute. The docs state "These logs can later be
analyzed by standard log analysis tools ... " hmm. googling "log
analysis tools" returns 53k hits.
Can anyone advise on a tool that I can incorporate into my application
that will let me analyze my logs via my (web based) admin interface ?
I will of course continue looking myself.

Thanks in advance
Duncan

</question>

... or you could also look for web log analyzers on the web.  If you 
used the Apache Httpd compatible access log format, any analyzer built 
to work on Apache Httpd should theoretically work on the Tomcat access log.

As I understand it access log valve outputs a compatible format to 
Apache Httpd so Webalizer should be able to analyze and provide reports.
