You could look in to customizing Hummingbird Stats (http://hummingbirdstats.com/) - the real time factor is already there; you would just have to add some additional things to track against.

Hummingbird doesn't look it supports going back in time well?

i.e. we'd want to ask "how many t-shirts did we sell yesterday".

That's where the customizing comes in. The actual data is stored and can be referenced using other tools/extensions/customizations.

Plus I think we want something that doesn't require javascript.

I guess I misunderstood your requirement of real time - I am guessing you meant that you want to see up to date information when visiting a page?

Yes, pretty much. It's fine to hit refresh and see the data as of a couple minutes ago.

Needing to wait a day (as in Google Analytics) would be too much.
