Analytics packages for high traffic sites

any recommendations?

I'm looking for an analytics package for an e-commerce website that gets around 2 million page views per month.

Problem is the budget. Most of the packages I've looked at are priced on a sliding scale of monthly traffic, and at 2m page views per month, the cost is astronomical - anywhere between $900 and $2000 per month.

Can anyone recommend a decent analytics package that costs under $500 per month?

(Note : I'm not interested in GA)

Forget about GA, get Urchin (Google acquired them, and made web version) since Google just updated it. It's superb and runs locally on your server:

[google.com...]

Download trial and see how it works.

Urchin = Google, so that's a non-starter.

Any other packages out there?

I can't believe there's nothing cheaper than $900 a month.

has anyone used Deepmetrix or Hitslink?

They look good feature-wise, but there's no mention of price.

We get about 500k page views a month and we use Site Stats. It's pretty decent and offers a lot of options. 2 million page views would cost you $250 for professional edition and $350 for enterprise edition.
