I used a package called pphlogger for a while. It worked well enough
but as it's no longer actively maintained, I recommend it as a
reference more than a ready-to-roll solution:
http://pphlogger.phpee.com/download.php
I've been working on my own site metric. Development is being done
recreationally and it's still pre-alpha. But the basic parts have
been tested and it's the same concept you describe (using mysql on the
backend) so it, too, may be useful as a reference:
http://bafflegate.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/
If you want to offer it as a service to others, it's probably going to
have to be a little less simple than you'd hope -- especially if you
want to distinguish between visitors (sessions) and hits and the like.
But maybe somebody knows of a more reliable pre-existing solution.
Maybe search phpclasses.org.
