Many of the common web log analyzers are a bit long in the tooth.

I've have used GoAccess for a while now and is mostly happy with it. It's fast enough and can generate pretty good looking static html which is mostly what you want for those simple use cases.

A side effect of processing log files is that you can freely try software on historical data.

Do you have a recommendation on log format for GoAccess? I run a lot of custom services with no nginx etc in front, so I'll have to figure out the logging myself.

You can always create an issue on their github page, lots of help in there: https://github.com/allinurl/goaccess/issues
