I think you'll have to organise your links differently.

Instead of having links in the form of
<a href='http://www.google.com'>Google</a>
you could have:
<a href='links.php?http://www.google.com'>Google</a>

Then in links.php

<?php
$link=$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
//Insert code to record link clicked here in db or file
header("Location: $link");
?>
