Stats were very important to me and other people I worked with. Up until the time that google started hiding the keywords people used to find the sites / pages. Now stats are not very helpful for us really. I do occasionally scroll through them and look for anomalies. Like heavy errors or subdomains or something as an entry point for example. However just getting the basic server stats with awstats or analog or whatever is plenty. There is no need for third party java and such. Without the keywords matching up to entry pages, it's mainly cpu usage and error codes that are worth checking. ommv.
