I think the only way you will be able to uniquely identify a computer is by using a "permanent" cookie. I find such practice very very intrusive and it's something I will personally not do.
Meanwhile, IP addresses, cookies and the likes are good to identify computers not users. If you really want to identify a user, you will have to make them log in.
