Nothing new is needed, AWStats is already installed and running on
download.osgeo.org where we host the website.
  http://awstats.sourceforge.net

I'm not sure if the results are made public or not.
FWIW I've never used awstats myself, I usually install webalizer for that.

anything on the server which isn't already a standard debian package (and
so gets automatic security fixes, is strongly audited, doesn't conflict
with anything else, etc).
