When I set up the Yahoo! archive site (http://members.nbci.com/hpfg) 
the provider gave me the code to insert.  The counter is at the 
bottom of the page--I picked the least obtrusive version of the three 
they offered.  The provide I used was http://www.thecounter.com

Who knows why I picked them.  (Probably because it is sponsored by a 
trade magazine I read.)  But they do offer a no-ad version, and 
statistics on: browser, resolution, color depth, time of access, 
country domains, etc.  They also offer to e-mail a weekly statistic 
report.

If you're interested in a sample, go ahead an log into the account I 
made for the Yahoo! index.  All the personal information I provided 
them was invalid.  You'd want to set up your own anyway.

The counter may be changing their presentation.  I see they are 
plugging a "premium" version that offers a non-visible counter.  My 
account already has this option.  No doubt not for long.
