What do you use to analyze downloaded server logs on Mac?

I just spent quite some time trying to find something, tried using software that is included with CP, but no luck.

I wanted to aggregate visits to specific pages by IP... such a simple task, yet hard to do.

Thanks

I use BBEdit to pull out lines containing specific text (or numbers). You can create grep (like regex) and put them in Apple Scripts to process all lines containing (whatever). It can delete the processed lines and create a new file or just copy them to clipboard. I am pretty sure I am only using the most basic levels of it. To find IPs that visit a specific page you could just use Text > Process lines containing > (pagename) then sort the results numerically to put them in order. BBEdit has tools to help you create Apple Scripts for automating the process if it is repetitive.
