Curious. What are the cons against AWStats?
Avoid due to technical, functionality or feature lacking issues?

Or due to security vulnerabilities?

Admin posts on the debian bugs list suggest AWStats v.6.5.2 contains fix for
latest AWStats sec issue. But I don't see any mention of v.6.52 on AWStats
site, or availability for download, or any indication of this updated
version within the change log. Argh.
