Just a heads-up that I pushed LogParser.jl to METADATA this weekend. This 
package is somewhat small at the moment, providing just a single function 
for parsing Apache Server logs and providing a DataFrame method to work 
with the data in a tabular format. While my regex is specifically tailored 
to the Apache Combined format 
<http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/logs.html#combined>, it will *probably* 
work if your server records in the Apache Commons format.

The use of this package can be for numerous things such as understanding 
how much bandwidth you use to detecting bots and even as a zero-cost web 
analytics system. I'm planning on making a blog post showing how 
LogParser.jl can be used with GeoIP.jl and UAParser.jl (both projects I've 
also worked on and/or created) to take the LogParser output and break it up 
further into location and user-agent components.

Finally, I've named it LogParser generically, as I'm open to adding other 
log types. I'm currently thinking about adding Hive logs, but if people 
have other formats that would be useful and can provide a sample file, I'll 
see about writing the regexes to parse them.

Hope someone finds this useful (besides me!).
