If your server doesn't allow you to read its LOG file, then you have to stop and analyze your visitors? Make your own LOG file!
All you have to do is count the actual number of clicks in PHP, no errors, no errors like '304 Not Modified' and 'Internal Server Error'. Your code will generate its own LOG file.
