An access log features a record of all of the files that have been requested by the visitors while browsing your site. The list is comprehensive, so if you have a page with 2 embedded images, for example, all of the three files shall be in the log, not just the page. An access log normally includes the date, the Operating System, the browser and the IP address for each file in human-readable form, so you can get an idea about the most well liked files on your website. The log, that's also often referred to as "raw data", is an addition to the web stats which you normally get with a hosting account, not an alternative. An illustration why you may need this type of a log is if you wish to use some software on your computer to prepare a report about the website’s functionality, but you do not want to use the regular graphs and tables that come with the server-generated site stats.
