Searchable and size-constrained local log repositories for tracking visitors' access to web content

A method and system for tracking visitors' access to web content using a searchable and size-constrained local log repository is disclosed. A repository indexer receives visitor logs from a remote source and indexes the logs to include a usage field indicating when or how frequently an associated visitor log was accessed from a local log repository by a report request manager. The local log repository stores the logs and is size constrained. A repository manager removes a subset of the logs in the local log repository based on parameters within the subset of the logs' usage field. The report request manager receives a request from a requestor for a report indicating visitors' access to a content object, searches for logs within the local log repository pertinent to the request, aggregates data across the logs responsive to the search, and generates a report presenting the aggregated data.
